An Early Birthday

This weekend my Grandma Anita visited and I got to open some birthday presents a month early. The presents added to my newest obsession with CARS. What I got included: flashlight, fleece blanket, pillow, lunchbox, sun glasses, view master, t-shirt and more..... Notice in the picture I'm using 3 of those items. Thanks for all the nice stuff. We all went to see the movie (finally, it's only been out for weeks now). I loved it. My favorite part was when Mater went fishing and pulled up Lighting McQueen. He also drives backwards, so he remains my favorite character. Overall, it was a fun weekend.

It's Been A Long Time.....

Thanks to my mom, who couldn't remember the password to login to this website, it's been a while since the last update on my life. So let me try to re-cap for you what's been going on in my world. It's been busy. Mom is feeling better, but has been out of town for work. Dad & I were "bachelor's" for the weekend. He took me to play "Big Boy Golf" (minature golf) and I loved it. Summer camp is going well. My favorite is water day on Friday's.

Meet my fish Fred #? (I can't count that high). I won him at the Holy Spirit summer social (my new school) a few weekends ago. This is me yelling at him, because fish apparently can't hear. I was telling Fred to swim. After the ride home, and me shaking the bag like I was making "Shake & Bake," Fred didn't move much. Mom put him in a vase, because she said she wasn't getting out the aquarium since these fish don't usually live more than a few days. But the next morning he was still swimming, and every morning after that for over 2 weeks. Then one evening Mom was cleaning out the vase and went to pour some of the yucky water down the sink drain and can you guess what happened next? Big uh-oh.

Next up - the movie CARS is out now and McDonald's has the different characters in their Happy Meals. I've collected several of the toys. My favorite thus far is Mater (the tow truck). I kept the box so that I can learn the names of all the characters. Dad promises we're going to see the movie soon.
Several weekends ago, Mom & I went with Aunt Lynn one Saturday shopping. The trip included a Happy Meal, so I'm easy to please. There were no toy stores involved in this shopping experience (next time I need to ask ahead of time where we are going). All I saw was clothes. But as you can see I did end up with some shark pj's, courtesy of Aunt Lynn.
