Swimming Summer



I am on a swim team called the Seacats.  I do swimming classes but this is the first time on a swimming team. I have a couple of friends from dance on team, Chloe and Skyler.   And my friend Sam from my swim class he is on the team too. I like swimming a lot but I don't like waking up in the morning for practices. Daddy takes me to practice and then Mommy and Luci and Julian pick me up. I do 3 practices every week.



I swim freestyle and backstroke in most of my races. I won 1st place in my first race but I haven't won all of them. You get blue ribbons for 1st and red ribbons for 2nd place.  Here are some videos of me swimming...






I like to jump in from the platform too. That is fun to...


...fly into the pool!

Day At The Track


On Fathers Day we went to the horse racetrack. Me and Luci picked some horses to win every race.  We won like 4 dollars but our horses didn't win a lot. Grandma and Grandpa went with us too. We sat high in the upstairs for awhile but then we went down to the ground to watch too.


Those horses are fast. I wish I could run as fast as a horse.

All Done With Kindergarten


Today was my last day of kindergarten.  We had a Manners Party for the last day and we got to leave school early too!  We had cookies and lemonade for our parents and other people.  Mommy and Daddy came to the party.  And Gram and Poppy did too.  You could only have 4 people.  


I got to hand out with my friends one more time before summer.  This is Kiera, Lilly, Lyric, Me and Cecilia.


With my Mommy and Daddy!  I love them!  


I told Miss Dunn and Mr McGuire that I'm ready for 1st grade!  Mr McGuire was a good teacher and Miss Dunn was a good assistant helping us out.  


Here is me, Bailey, Abigail and Lilly.  I'll see them next year.  I wonder who will be in my first grade class?

Sissy's Baby Is Here


Aunt Sissy had her baby!  I thought it was going to be a girl but it was boy.  Rowan is his name.  We went to the hospital when he was born.  I remember going to the hospital when Julian was born in the middle of the night.  


I tried on Gram's doctor clothes but they were a little big.  

-

He is a cutie-patootie.  Now I have 3 cousins.  Tyler, Landon and Rowan.  And they are all boys.

Field Trip!!!

 

I have been waiting for our field trip to the zoo and finally we went.  


I went around the zoo with Lyric and Addy and Bailey.  We had a lot of fun.  We took a lot of funny pictures.  Look I am driving!   



I wish we could have been at the zoo for longer but we had to go eat lunch at a park.


Then we did get to play on a playground.  Both Kindergarten classes took a picture.  Mr McGuire's class and Miss Balser's class.  Can you find me?  Where's Riley?

IU Baseball


I went to IU basketball games when I was little.  I went to IU football games a lot of times.  But I never knew they had IU baseball games.  Daddy wanted to go.  What is next?  IU soccer games (Daddy note: Good idea, Riley) So we went to the game and we met Tyler there.  He lives at IU and I think he goes to school.  I don't know what grade he is in though.


We sat on blankets on the grass field.  I liked it because got to play around.


After the game was over they let kids run around the bases.  But this baseball place did not have dirt.  The grass was not even real grass!  It was like a plastic rug.  I didn't know it was not real grass and dirt because they paint it green and brown.  But I ran around the bases fast...


...and so did Luci.  But I know that I was faster than her.  Watch out!  I'm running home!

Derby Winner


We watched the Kentucky Derby horse race.  I drew the number 5 horse and Mommy and Aunt Sissy were mad because was a good horse.  Then guess what?  He won the race!
