Meet Chomp Kame Tortuga. We found each other at the Magnolia Festival. Evan has been asking for a turtle for quite awhile and this little guy was the right size for our family! Evan named him Chomp, but Eric decided it needed a full name. For those who aren't familiar with the foreign languages: Kame is Japanese for turtle and Tortuga is Spanish..JPG)

Turtles are lots of fun.I have had a turtle since I was 2 years old.
Sister Staton was going to Oklahoma to visit her family and asked my mom to come along for the trip. At this time my dad worked very early in the morning until very late at night.We would always try to stay up to see him.He was never around and couldn't watch me while my mom was gone.My mom did not trust my sisters to watch me.Sam and Emma were 5 and 6 years older than me and did not want to play with me much.Claire had just had Brittany and well you get the picture.As we were coming home,just out side of Tulsa,Oklahoma,a turtle walked across the road.My mom got out to see if they were okay.I asked "Sister Staton can I have that turtle???" I knew if I asked my mom she would say no.Of course,at the age of two I had a speech impairment on my R's which made it nearly impossible for anyone ,other than my mom, to say no to me.After pleading with my mom for five minutes Sister Staton won.I got the turtle.Sister Staton still says to this day,"How could I say no to that sweet little 'ANGEL'." Angel...I think not. I am a far from it.

P.S. Our turtle eats anything from vegetables to dog food.Remember to clean the turtles living space.It can start to smell within a month.
