BSE: Best Sister Ever

My sister and I have been enjoying the festivities.  Including annual pajamas from "Grandma McDonald e-i-o". 

Nutcracker

My friend, Maxi, was in the Nutcracker so we went to watch her on Christmas Eve. 

Tree Decorating

We paid $5 for our tree this year.  It was beautiful. 

Soccer!

I played on my school team this Fall.  And the Galactic Girls (bottom picture is from a tournament in Sacramento)

RipStik

I am so lucky to have an amazing gym teacher and gym class (every day!) at my new school.  This recent unit we learned how to ride one of these.

Visit from Grandma Juanita

Grandma Juanita came to visit and help watch me.  We had fun though some plans were cancelled by the wildfires up north. 

Veteran's Day

Today I went to gymnastics camp at UC Berkeley. Afterwards, we went to ride on the mini-train at Tilden regional park. 

Making Cards

Very belated birthday cards for my cousin Robin. 

Happy Halloween

My little sister was just a bit too scared of Halloween this year. 

Pumpkin Patch

Halloween cookies

I can't wait to get my new cake decorating set from Pampered Chef that Mommy Laura bought me. 

Thanksgiving in Edmonton

Mommy Laura and I went to visit Sam and Annie in Edmonton while Willa stayed home.  It snowed!  we went sled riding!  We walked in the ravine.  We drank Chai.  We went to Value Village.  We ate Thanksgiving dinner. Whew...

Newest Park in SF

We went to check out the new Salesforce Transit Center Public Park

Soccer Game

Blackberry picking...best cobbler all summer!

Baseball Practice with Daddy Pat

First Day of Middle School!

Exchanging numbers......

Good to be home

Off to Gymnastics Camp!

Camp Woodward Bound. I bunked with Ruby and Zoe. 

Slime Time... again...

I took a "bubble slime" class at the library.  I will add it to my slime recipe book!  I also did a bath bomb class which was interesting. 

Let's all go to the Zoo tomorrow

While Mommy Laura was at her conference, we went to the San Diego Zoo and San Diego Zoo Safari Park. 

Everybody's gone surfin'

Mommy Laura's (UCSF) mentor's daughter teaches surf lessons in La Jolla California so I got a private lesson!  This was my first time surfing.  It was great fun and I can't wait to do it again. 

Lake Swimming at its Finest

We took the annual trip to Spring Lake this year.  Daddy Pat and I went kayaking too while Willa took a nap under the tree.  It was a lot of fun again.

O-H-I-O

this was the only picture Mommy Laura got of me on this leg of the trip.

NY, NY

Canada Bound: Vikings, Icebergs, and former hangouts, oh my!

Garden Time

I wanted to plant a pot of flowers for my sister.  I included a green pepper plant too because she loves to eat her vegetables!

Field Day

I won a few races. And the relays.  It was a great day at Kezar Stadium with my school. What a way to end a great year of transition for me.

Trip to Seattle

We joined Meran and Annie in Seattle.  It was so much fun hanging out with them.  Annie and I made dinner for everyone too.
