First Communion


I made my first communion at church today!  Let me tell you, the wine and the bread are not that good.  They are just okay.  We got to taste them at our communion retreat day on Friday.  Some of the kids in my class made faces after tasting the wine.  But I didn't.  Like I said, it was okay...not good really or bad.

At the retreat we got to make bread ourselves too.  It was kind of plain to eat. And we decorated the banners on each row at church. We got to do with our parents and Mommy and Daddy helped me.


That is the row that we sat in and we were close to the front by where the choir sits.  I liked dressing up and wearing the veil.  It was fun to do it with my class.

Children's Museum Trip


On Spring Break we went to the Children's Museum in Indianapolis.  I never there before.  Mommy and Daddy said they went there when they were kids...not together but each of them went there.  You know what the building is because it has this huuuuuge dinosaur climbing on it.






There was a lot of cool stuff there.  They had Egyptian rooms and these old Chinese soldier things that you got to put together.  The scientists found a whole room of these soldiers in China and they had pictures of the real ones.  Oh yeah and they had a lot of dinosaur bones and skeletons.  And some rooms with dress up things that were kind of like Bellaboo's by Grandma's house.


It was a lot of fun things to play with. I even got my driver's license and a race car!


Daddy liked the water clock because he remembers it from when he was a kid.  You can tell time by how the water fills up the circles.  I watched it empty when it turned to a new o'clock.  It is a pretty cool clock. And next to the clock was a chocolate slide.  Here is a video of me and Daddy going down the slide.
