Daddy Daughter Dance 2017

Our Lady did the Daddy - Daughter Dance again.  Daddy had 2 dates again.  Me and Riley took turns dancing on his feet but mostly we hang out with our friends.

Like usual, I hung out with best friend Ella.  We took some great pics at the photo booth that Mommy was working.  And they did a balloon drop from the ceiling.  There were so many balloons...

...we were yelling for them to drop the balloons.

New Year's Resolution

I wrote down my new resolution for 2017 in school today. My resolution is to be nice to people and smile at them even if I don't know them.

Cubs Paper

I got into the Cubs winning the world series this year.  I wrote this informative paper at school about the Cubs and Daddy loved it.

1st Grade Halloween Party

A kid in my class named Owen had a Halloween party at his house for the kids in our class.  It was only for 1st graders.  Riley wanted to go but she couldn't and she was mad.  But Daddy took her and Julian to a trick or treat at Our Lady so I don't feel bad for her.

I wore my diner girl costume.  And I hung with a mummy cheerleader and a some mummy cats and stuff.  There was lots of toilet paper mummies.  And I bobbed for apples.  It was fun.  I don't really like to eat apples but I like to bob for apples.

Soccer

I played on a soccer team for the first time.  I really like soccer now.  It is fun.  And I scored two goals.  And I really like to play goalie too.  Daddy wasn't the main coach but he helped coach like an assistant.  It was a boy & girl team.  I made a couple of new friends too.

Me and Julian are soccer players.

Happy Birthday to Riley and Me

I have been 7 for a week but today we had our family birthday party. It was a rainy day but the party was inside our house.  This is the first time we had our birthday at this house.  All of our family came over and we had a cookie cake with 9 candles for Riley and 7 candles for me.  That's a lot of candles! 

We got lots of good presents.  Legos, CD players, books, earrings and Shopkins! 

Rowan really likes Shopkins!

 

Thank you to everyone with birthday presents and happy birthday wishes.  

Surprise! Holiday World

 

The day after your birthday is usually boring but not today...because we went to Holiday World!  We didn't know we were going until this morning when Mommy and Daddy told us.  Aunt Sissy, Uncle Steven and Rowan went with us too! 

I am 48 inches tall so I could ride almost all of the rides.  I rode the Raven with Daddy.  My eyes were closed and I squeezed his arm for part of it but I did say it was fun afterwards.  Riley is too scared to ride roller coasters.  I almost went on the Voyage but it was too big and I changed my mind.  We didn't get to ride the Legend but I will do that one next time.  It is bigger than the Raven. 

 

 

I did the really high swings ride with Mommy.  You go really high up.  Can you find me?  I'm wearing a pink shirt.  

I drove a car too but Aunt Sissy said that I am a bad driver. 

And we had so much fun at the water park.  I did the Jungle Racer like 5 times and we did the black slides like 10 times.  The lines were too long for the other ones but it was still a lot of fun.  I could go to Holiday World everyday.
