Good Bye Murtle

As long as we are cleaning out bedrooms and throwing out stuff (I'm definetely not a collector) why not Murtle - the turtle. Dad is the person that cleans out the tank and Mom and Davis feed Murtle - but do we need the turtle? Grandpa brought us the turtle a couple of years ago because he couldn't take care of it any more while taking care of Grandma. So we adopted the turtle which actually used to be a member of the Oyler family (my sister Lauralyn) for about 15 years. So I called Rachel (Lauralyn's daughter) and they said they wanted Murtle. Of course the kids were sad (for about 20 seconds) and now there is one less thing to worry about.

Murtle played in the dirt while we packed up the tank and STUFF so Rachel and Sam could take him home.
Good bye Murtle.
