dramatic reading by sarah.

The other night we were driving home from Chipotle and Sarah found a Golden Book ("The Three Bears") and she started reading...

turtle riding or not?

So tonight we somehow started talking about turtles and it reminded me that I rode a turtle when I was young. This statement, however, brought about much laughing from Steph. She insisted that I must be wrong and had actually ridden a llama instead. She said that people don't ride turtles and that they are little creatures.

Now, even though it is really late and we are tired, we have pulled out the computer and started googling things like: "people on turtles," "sea turtles," etc. We were not able to find an adequate picture, so I wasn't able to prove anything. Have any of you ridden on a turtle before? By the way, my parents have a picture...someday I will find it. Steph wants everyone to know that I've also ridden an elephant and a camel. Steph did ride some coin horses at the supermarket when she was growing up...and a merry-go-round.
