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.”)

WINDY CITY

Today, I planned on going to the pool. But it was such a windy day, I decided to skip it and hang out instead.

I went for a walk around the neighborhood to search for Endermite food. (Endermite is a character in Minecraft.)

I had to fight the wind!

And then Daddy had to fight the wind!

Afterwards, Nana wanted to take a family portrait of me, Mommy, and Daddy.

And then I wanted to take a family portrait, too.

THE ADVENTUREDOME

On my first morning in Henderson, Papa told me about his days as a fingerprint analyst and showed me fingerprints on the computer.

Then we looked at my fingerprints through a magnifying loupe.

Afterwards, we got to do the thing I was super excited for – The Adventuredome at Circus Circus. I LOVED IT.

Here’s a little video of me having the time of my life.

LAS VEGAS VIA SAN FRANCISCO

I’m off to visit Nana and Papa in Henderson, and I got to do it with a layover in San Francisco! Dreams really do come true.

Early on, I got right to the business of drawing airplanes.

While descending towards SFO, we had a neighbor from United Airlines.

We didn’t have much time in SFO for exploring, but I did get to play some tunes on this wooden xylophone before boarding our connecting flight.

On our second flight, I read “Ms. Bindergarten Gets Ready For Kindergarten” to Daddy.

Here are some wing photos I took while on our flights.

BLACK INK WHITE RABBIT

We went to a coffee shop in Oregon City called Black Ink White Rabbit for some fun LEGO building. Mommy, Daddy, and I each brought a small amount of LEGOs and we built as many different things as we could with them!

I bundled up before braving the elements to go home.

GOODBYE, LOS ANGELES

On the morning before heading home, we had breakfast at HomeState with Crystal & Chris and Veronica and her family.

The little boy is Veronica’s brother, Lex.

I talked to Veronica’s daddy, Kenny, about airplanes and Route 110.

I also took pictures of Daddy, Mommy, and Veronica.

Then Veronica and I climbed the fence that kept us from Figueroa Street.

Goodbye for now, LA. I had fun!

BIRTHDAY GET-TOGETHER WITH OLD FRIENDS

On my last full day in Los Angeles, I was worn out from a very full week.

But it was the day I invited three old friends to come play with me at Shane’s Inspiration playground.

The first to arrive was Sebastian!

We got right to juice drinking and cupcake decorating.

The little boy behind Sebastian is his new brother, Charles.

Then Veronica came and joined us at the decorating table.

Last but not least, Andy arrived and we compared sandy hands.

Andy’s sister, Nicholena, was just a baby when we left three years ago.

After decorating our cupcakes, it was time for me to blow out the candles on my self-decorated cake. It was fun seeing all of my old buddies again!

After hanging out with my friends, I went out to ice cream with Uncle Mike and Aunt Sarah. For some reason, I wrote numbers on their palms.

And drew airplanes and amusement parks before having to say goodbye.
