Drawing

I have become quiet an artist lately… I ask to draw when I wake up and I will gladly spend 45 minutes coloring one of my favorite things (planes, helicopters, boats, garbage trucks, or blimps).

(Okay, so here comes a proud Mama moment, turn away if you are prone to nausea from such things…)

My book of airplanes

Signed by the illustrator on the back (nope the picture is not flipped that is his mirror image signature).  I love how he drew ‘previews’ of his other two books, “You know, so people will know about my other books”

First Soccer Game

My first soccer game… It was clear I didn’t know the rules of the game but I had fun! For part of the game I was the goalie and I blocked two balls!  I was proud and the coach was too!

Snow!

Yes the first of Spring has passed but we have snow!

There is little in life more fun than an random snowball fight with your favorite neighbors!

Snow is fun to throw, eat, and look at! (our backyard)

Sometimes I am just like my Mama

And it makes her smile.

A…B…P…

Myron: “A is for alligator… B is for bird… P is for Purdue”

Mama: LOL

Bella

We got a dog!  I named her Bella… but she was not meant to be… she was in our family for about 24 hours and then she went back to her old home.  At the time I was okay with her leaving but now I miss her.  I hope to visit her soon.

Our first fire (sort of)

We lit our first fire in the fireplace. The only problem… it rained on our wood the day before…

Better luck next time Dada.

3… 2… 1… Lift Off!

My 5th Birthday party was a space theme. 

The house was decorated and I was ready in my astronaut suit!

We had planets hung from the ceiling and an astronaut obstacle course… jump the craters, walk the plank (okay we were pirate astronauts), dig up moon rocks, use ‘special space tools’, crawl threw the space tunnel, and avoid the asteroids!  

And what would a space party be without a few rocket launches.   I had a great time at the party!

And then it was time for presents!

My favorites… my wagon, my cool twisting markers and coloring pad, my wobbly toothbrush, my Otis book, my fossil scull, and last but not least by Lego space shuttle… which only took Daddy and I two nights to assemble!
