Why I love Oscar

Oscar came to live with me 3 and 1/2 years ago right before my 21st birthday. He is fabulous. He is really noisy and makes a lot of talkative grumbly noises. He loves kids, especially babies. Mostly he likes to lick them because they taste delicious. I love Oscar because he loves me and everyone in my family. He is always excited whenever anyone comes home. He is most excited when I come home. His favorite thing to do is go for walks by the canal, which we do daily. We also enjoy snuggling while watching television. He also is a bed hog, but I don't mind. These are just a few of the reasons why I love Oscar.

Best thing about my backyard... the trampoline

While there are many things to love about my home, the thing I like most is the backyard. I love the grass, the garden, the many many trees my father has planted over the years (it increases property value). We have a lot of room to play games and have water gun fights. I like to lay in the grass with both dogs and look up at the sky, pondering the many meanings of life. But by far the BEST part of my backyard is the trampoline. The trampoline was given to us by a man who lives down the road and is a friend of my father. He is old and his children grew up and didn't use it anymore. We got it when I was about 10. It is fabulous. You would think that at the age of 24 I wouldn't still love the tramp as much as I do, but who doesn't love jumping through the air? I am still the person in our family who uses it the most. The person who uses it the most after me? My dad.
