PRE-K GRADUATION

I am officially a graduate of Cherry Hills Preschool!

My Pre-K class had an ice cream party to celebrate. Here I am on the swings with Haroon, Auden, and Wesley.

This is one of my favorite places to go during recess. I call it “the upper level.”

For our last circle time, Ms. Tami asked if anyone had a song they wanted to sing. I said “The Bumblebee Song!”

I love this song and laugh at lots of the parts.

After the party was done, Johnny, Haroon, Auden, and I played with the bubbles that came as part of our gift from the teachers.

Here are my final pieces of school art.

And here’s a video of my last goodbye song at Cherry Hills. Next fall, it’s Cedaroak Park Primary School!

OAKS AMUSEMENT PARK

Ever since we got back from Disneyland, I’ve been dreaming about going to Oaks Amusement Park in Portland. I put this day in Mommy’s calendar and, even though it was rainy, I wasn’t going to miss it!

Here I am on Up, Up, & Away!

And looking tough on Chipper’s Choppers.

As the rain started to come down, I went up on the ferris wheel…

…and saw Daddy way, way down there. Do you see him with his hands in the air?

We went under cover on the Oaks Park Train and Daddy pretended that he wasn’t soaking wet.

This was my favorite ride – Sky Fighters!

The last ride of the day was Go Karts. By this time, I was a soaking wet sponge. Despite my glum face, I rated this as my second favorite ride!

All in all, a successful day!

SPRING VISIT TO KENJI’S, PART ONE

Me, Mommy, and Daddy did a quick weekend trip up to Kenji’s house in Seattle. When we got there, Kenji was napping, so I took a long walk around the neighborhood.

By the time we got back, I was VERY tired.

But Kenji was awake! I gave him one of my syringes and extension sets because he likes playing with them in the water.

Then I showed him the joys of Minecraft.

Mommy gave him an octopus t-shirt she made and he strutted around like a real runway model.

And Daddy played blanket jail with him. Kenji’s a real goofball.

HOLLY’S NEW HOUSE

Mommy’s friend, Holly, just moved into a new house with her husband, Matt, and son, Quinton. And she invited us and a bunch of other kids to play.

First, we had a big Minecraft playing session!

Then I played around on Quinton’s piano.

Annabel and I watched as some of the other kids played badminton in the yard.

Then when they cleared out, I went to try some badminton myself. It was fun!

TOWN SQUARE

It was another sunny day, so we went to another park in the middle of the Town Square Mall.

I rode a unicorn…

…And baked Mommy a cake.

I also did some hula hooping.

My favorite, though, was the train! (Aka the “Cactus Coaster.”)

CONTAINER PARK

It was a beautiful day, so we headed to Container Park in downtown Las Vegas. It has a cool treehouse with three long, curvy slides!

There is also a big open space with building blocks, a bench swing, and what I called the yellow area.

The most interesting thing was this BUTTON. I couldn’t decide if I should push it…

Such a tough decision!

But then I just couldn’t help myself!

Bye, Container Park! You were fun to play in!
