Rinoe Anderson

This lovely creature was awarded to young Ellis at the Orange E Carnival last evening. His first choice for a name was Joe, Joe Anderson. It was later decided that he would be called Rinoe.

He brought it home and decided that he looked hungry. We of course had no fish food, so instead Rinoe was given cookie crumbs. Unfortunately gold fish are not fond of cookies and Ellis watched sadly as Rinoe spit the cookie out after sampling it.

Our boys have a long history of killing Orange E Carnival goldfish. The first one was petted to death by a 2 year old Will. He pushed a chair up to the counter in the wee hours of the morning and decided it wanted to be held. Gold fish don't like to be held, or squeezed we have come to find out.

Lets see how long this one lasts..............

A little story about a cornfield

While visiting at the first annual "Anderson Family Reunion," I took this cute little picture of some kids in a cornfield. After looking around a bit I noticed that one of MY kids was missing. "Hey where is Ellis?" Nobody knew. "We were playing Hide and Seek in the cornfield a little while ago, but we quit."

After collecting a small search party and walking through the corn for a good 45 minutes, we finally found him crying and scared right in the middle of the circle of corn. He was immediately declared the winner of Hide and Seek.
