This is my twin brother, Thomas. We are very close. We usually don't get along, but even in fights, we still team up on our parents during Nerf Wars. My brother and I are really competitive when it comes to sibling rivalry. He wins when it comes to video games, and I win when it comes to athletics. We may fight but somehow, we make it work.
This is my stepdad, Daryl or D.A. Most of my friends know him. When my friends come over to my house, he tries to embarrass me as much as possible. He starts with calling me names. For example: Dobby(Harry Potter), PitchWitch, Alley Mongus(DON'T ASK), etc. He came into my life when I was five and has been there for me ever since. Since my biological father is never around, he has stepped in and taken care of Thomas and I. He takes us to the doctor, orthodontist, pitching, drumming, batting, and any other activity that we need to go to. He has also introduced me to Purdue. Purdue University is now my home away from home. We go up there all the time, and its a blast. This is a picture of us at my first Purdue Homecoming game. I got my first Purdue football and got it signed by Mike Alstott and Purdue Pete.
This is my mom, Heather. She is an author and one of the best people I know. She always knows what to say when I'm in a situation. She always supports me when she is on the sidelines or in the dugout working. My mother has been there for me since day one. Most of my friends think my mom is really cool. I kind of agree with them. She has made me banners for softball and bought me all my equipment for softball. She also finds the coolest things for our rooms. She customized a Fathead for my room. It said,"PURDUE SOFTBALL 21. BORN TO WEAR BLACK AND GOLD." She also got me one of Mackey Arena, which is wear this picture was taken at. This was at the Purdue versus Iowa game where Purdue blew them out in the first half. I love my mom and I thank her for everything she does for Thomas and I.
These are my pets. I have six of them; five dogs and a frog. My dogs' names are Cash, Dutch, Peyton, Speckles, and Abbie. Our frog's name is Luke. Cash is probably my best friend(dog best friend). He has ditched my parents and now he follows me everywhere. Cash even tried to get on the bus with me on the first day. Dutch is the biggest out of all of them, so he eats the most. We call him the Million Dollar Dog. At our old house, he was attacked by a coyote, his ear was inflated with so much gunk that it stood straight up, and he is partially blind in one eye. Dutch and Speckles are married and had seven puppies. Peyton is the grandson of Dutch, but the son of Speckles. One of the puppies from the first litter fathered the second litter, which is where Peyton came to be about. Peyton is the youngest out of all the pets. He was born three days after Thomas and I were. He is very rambunctious and is always wanting to play. He is also kind of destructive. He has torn up furniture, shoes, and toys, but we still love him. Speckles is a special dog. She was dumped on the side of the road at our old house and left there. It took us a month just to get her to come close to the house. Now she is, according to my aunt, a fat sausage. Abbie is the most spoiled out of them all. She gets what she wants when she wants. Even though she is a brat, we still love her. She is one of the funniest dogs I have ever met. Luke is our newest addition to the family. Don't get her name confused. Luke is a girl. We just recently found this out. She was my mom's boss' frog for the past ten years, but now they are moving to Barcelona and can't take Luke with them. So now Luke is our frog and the newest addition to Fleenerville.
