Our Great Auntie Jennifer came out for a visit. We read to her, played Uno with her, went to dinner, and took her to some fun places. While I was at school (and jealous) Tommy and Mommy took her to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach.
Their favorites were the penguins...
And the seals...
And sea lions.
They also had fun feeding the lorikeets.
Tommy fed one first...
Then was very delighted when it climbed on his arm.
Future zookeeper!
Then it was on to shark watching...
And squid riding (sort of).
Auntie Jennifer even came to watch me in karate. Thanks for coming to visit, we love you and had so much fun!
Today I earned my black stripe on my white belt in karate! This means I am on my way to becoming a yellow belt, and I did my first kata (forms or positions) really well with a guide. Once I can do them myself, look out yellow belts! As you can see, I was very VERY excited to earn it.
The whole family came to open house night at my school. They got to see all my cool writing and artwork, and our community project, shown here. I built the post office!
