Father's Day

For Father's Day, Daddy picked that we could go to see Finding Dory.  It was a good movie and it was a good day to spend with Daddy.

And She's Off!

I really am good at riding my bike without training wheels now.  Mommy was working with me last week and I was just taking off.  I have been riding my bike up and down our street.

Go! Go! Go!

 We had a party for the Kentucky Derby and we made fancy hats to wear.  They even had lights on them.  Ohhh!  I was made that my horses didn't win though.  The Lord boys' mom won for the adults and my friend Lyric won for the kids.  Maybe next year.

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.

Finally Some Snow

We didn't have any snow for Christmas but we finally got some snow this week. We had 2 snow days from school.  Actually, I only went to school 2 days this week!  Because we had Martin Luther King Jr Day off.  He was an important guy that made African Americans be free from having different schools and stuff.  So you don't have to go to school on his birthday, which was Monday.  Then it snowed on Wednesday and it snowed again on Friday for no school.

Me and Luci played outside in the snow.  Then today we went sledding.  There were a lot of people out sledding on the hill.  Aunt Sissy and Uncle Steven brought Rowan but he didn't stay out for too long. My friend Lyric met us there too.  There was a big bump on the hill that would bounce you in the air.  And some kids made a snowman at the bottom of the hill.  It was fun to finally have some snow.

Watch this video of me and Mommy going into the tree!
