Field Trip

April 9, 2008
Today our Kindergarten class went on a field trip. We took the school bus to the Big Lagoon State Park. There we met 3 park rangers. They showed us some artifacts – mostly animal bones – and they went out into the water to catch some small fish. We even found a seahorse! This park has also a great playground.

Easter Egg Hunt

March 15, 2008

Mom is in Crestview – and Dad and I are up to another adventure! First we went to the Pensacola Easter Egg Hunt (see pictures). I did not collect this many eggs, but it was a lot of fun. Then big surprise – the first time for me – we went to the movie theatre and watched Horton. Of course we had to buy a big bucket of popcorn and a large Sprite. After the movie I was hungry and we stopped at Chick-fil-A. This was a really fun day! Oh, I forgot to mention that we did all this with the bike!

5K run

Saturday April 12 / 5K Run for Missions
This is our first 5K run! Tim was one of the youngest participants and he finished the 5K in 42 minutes – let’s see if you can beat this! After the run we had breakfast – which was as fun as the run itself. Our next race will be the Fiesta of Five Flags 5K on May 3rd.

Fort Pickens

Today (which means March 2nd) we made a trip to Fort Pickens. We left the house at 6 am and drove to Pensacola Beach. The road to the Fort is – since Hurricane Ivan – damaged (see pictures) and closed for cars. We took off with our bike and when there was no road we walked – it’s a 7 miles (oneway) trip but Fort Pickens was worth it!

Spaghetti

Now I know why I like spaghetti – maybe my ancestors where spaghetti farmers ! 

there’s a song…

Did you know – there’s a song out there about my mom! I just found it on youtube! Enjoy! 

Dad’s Day

Friday is ‘Dad’s Day’! Dad is picking me up from school – normally with the bike. First we race to one of my favorite places – the library! Here I can just browse around read some books, play a game on one of the computers and of course we will always take some books and maybe a DVD home. Next stop is ‘blockbuster’ – you would not believe it but I also like this store a lot. Sometimes I can even talk my Dad into getting a movie for me – but today we only returned one. Now I’m ready for a break – you know a trip with Dad is always about finding a balance between fun, health and nutrition. Today we actually stopped at ‘smoothie king’ – because I was so in need of a healthy drink. After enjoying my treat I was ready for our bike ride home where Tiger was greeting us. Now I’m ready for weekend!

reflection contest

Our school had this ‘reflection contest’ and I participated in the category ‘photography’. I was my first contest ever and I had to compete with much older kids – but I even received an award. I took all the pictures myself – using the digital camera my sister gave me. Thanks sis!
