Writing is my favorite class that isn’t recess. Right now, we’re writing true stories! Here are a few of my latest.
This one is about going to the French bakery, St. Honoré, and seeing a family of girls wearing tulle dresses.
This one is about going to Disneyland.
And this one was about when I went to the hospital with kidney stones.
Fially, this one is about when we got stuck in the snow on our way to the airport to visit Nana and Papa.
It was a beautiful sunny day, so we headed to my school playground for some fun. It’s the best play structure around!
For Halloween this year, I dressed up as my classmate, Maddie! I made my costume myself, sticking flowers to my clothes and creating a “blankie dress” (Mommy helped with the safety pins.)
First, I went trick-or-treating at my neighbor, Suzi’s, house.
This house was so scary, I ended up not even ringing the doorbell. I just got outta there!
This one was much better.
Once again, my pumpkin bucket was so full, I could hardly carry it by the end. Another successful candy grab!
Happy birthday to my favorite cousin, Kenji! We visited Seattle to celebrate his big day. He specifically requested a rainbow cake.
He liked dipping his finger in the frosting.
Then it was time to blow out the candles.
SUCCESS!
One thing I gave him were my old Duplo blocks.
He liked them as much as I did.
Then the next morning, we went to brunch. Kenji loves to put Daddy’s hood on his head! Happy birthday, Kenji!
Nana and Papa are visiting the Pacific Northwest, so I took them to one of my favorite places – Color Me Mine!
We carved the pumpkins I got at the pumpkin patch! I sketched out their faces on paper so Mommy would know how to carve them.
This is a Teeter Popper, but I’ve repurposed it as lounge furniture.
Daddy is making a short movie with his judo sensei. He bought this hat as a prop. I look pretty good in it, huh?
My first kindergarten field trip was to Lee Farms (where I had many preschool field trips before).
Our school bus was late in arriving, so we spent some time in the library first. Mommy was a chaperone and was in charge of me and Anna.
The first thing we all did when we got there was splash in puddles!
A man told us about a bunch of varieties of pumpkins.
And another man showed us how they made apple cider in the olden days.
We saw a bunch of animals, including chickens. As usual, this was my least favorite part. But Anna loved them all.
Then I picked out my pumpkin! We’re going to carve it before Halloween.
