All I wanted was a.....

PIG PUPPET!  I love this pig, his name is Jeffery.

I haven't been so excited about a toy in a long time.  Mom is going to knit him a "J" sweater to match my "R" sweater.

Christmas Card 2013

Here is this year's card.

End of Tiny Tigers

Most of my karate friends and I had our last belt test in Tiny Tigers this past weekend.  Next week we move into the Under 10 Juniors class.  It's all very exciting!  I have been doing Goju karate for a year and a half. I am glad that I move up with my friends.

#2 Kata

In Tiny Tigers, I have learned two katas (or forms).  The second one is a lot more complicated than the first.

End of Test

Reading my pig story aloud

In the Bridge School Student Showcase, I was the only student that presented solo.  I read a story that I wrote about pet pigs.  Unfortunately, the Forest Song was so long it took up all of Mom's memory space and the last half of my story is missing. (I get two pigs from the pet store!)

Bridge School Student Showcase 2013

My class has been studying forests for the last 8 weeks.  We had a student showcase on Thursday so parents could see what we have been working on.  I am wearing the grey and white stripped shirt.  This is a little long so you are probably my grandmother if you watch the whole thing,,,,,,

Halloween 2013

It turned out to be a great night for Trick or Treating.  It was mild and not raining.  I got to wear most of my costume to school. (No scary mask.)  After dinner my parents took me to the Landmark on the Sound Halloween Carnival.

 The Landmark on the Sound is a Masonic Home that is now empty and used for events.  They have a Halloween Event every year.  I mainly came for the "Haunted Hallway".

I decided to play some games first.

I really liked the fishing game.  I got some cool pumpkin cookies that I can't eat.

We headed toward the "Haunted Hallway"

I don't think I want to go now......

"I know it's just pretend Mom"

 The Hallway was dark with strobe lights.  There were lots of zombie teenagers in a Hospital of the Dammed theme.

I was glad to be outside.

Next, it was to Grandma Judy's.  She has the perfect street to Trick or Treat on.

A few of the houses were really decked out.  I liked the witches under the garage door.  Next we went to Poppa and Jeanie's.

I met up with Lillian, the girl next door and we Trick or Treated our street.

It was a good night.

Halloween Party at the Dojo

For the Halloween festivities this year, I have decided to combine last year's costume (skeleton zombie) with my new costume (soldier).  Mom said that I looked scary.  My parents and I went to our dojo Halloween party.  I go to Goju Karate down in Kent, and the students and their families bring food and set up games for the younger kids.  Sensei and the older kids/parents, even put together a haunted house.

I played the games.  That's Isabelle, she is the tooth fairy.

I found one of my Tiny Tiger buddies.....

I got some candy, although I really am not very interested in it.

Nathaniel, Arun and I decided to see if we could go to the haunted house.  We found out that it didn't open until later, so we could not go.

On our way out, we saw that someone had made this really awesome cake.  I had a nice time, even though I can't eat the cake.

Earthworks-Johnson Pit #30

Mom and I have driven by this pit a lot.  We finally decided to go and check it out before dinner yesterday.

 The camera is flattening the image out. It is actually deeper than it appears.

 This is at the bottom.

 Lily, one of our dogs, had a great time running around.

 I ran around too!

 Dad and I posed at the top of the hill.

It was fun running around.  Kent has another Earthworks Park.  We will go visit it soon.

Inspired by Brick Con

I have been inspired to play with my legos and make cool scenes.  This scene, is about zombies and zombie hunters.
