A vist to Peter.

I have this friend in Maine. His name is Peter. He's the second oldest of the kids in his family, and has 6 brothers and sisters including him. His family had to move because this weekend. So we came to help them yesterday. It took about a hour and a half to drive to the house, and I think the new house was 40 minutes away. We got to the house, but before we got to park, we saw Peter's dad on a 36 foot U-hual truck, so my dad decided to go with.


Peter has a pet rat, and so does his older sister, Natille. They're two girls, Bandet and Rascel. They're kept in the same cage. We said hello to them before we got down to business, getting stuff in the car, and bringing it to the new house.


We went to the new house and back twice. First time I went with my mom, Peter, Peter's younger sister Mary, and Peter's younger brother Nathan. Nathan was put in a carseat in between me and Mary. I couldn't adjust the seatbelt, it was an uncomortable 40 minutes.


We got there, and I thougt it was a pretty nice place. Peter Mary and Nathan had to share the same room. That was same for Peter's two younger brothers, Christopher and Matthew. But Natille gets a room all for herself. But the reason of this is that the house doesn't have enouth rooms for just one person him or herself. But I think its real hard for Peter's mom to care for half a dozen, and I mean LITERALLY, HALF A DOZEN OF CHILDREN!


It was about 6pm, and we were pretty much done with packing everything. So we settled down and had fun after a busy day. I had a lot of diet coke because they had diet coke. A few hours went by, and it was time for the kids to go to bed. So we went home. But I forgot to go to the bathroom. It was a long way back home, I was thinking I was goning to explode. But of course, no one ever exploded when they forgot to got to the bathroom. :p
