And Another Birthday Party!

Another weekend I went to the 5th birthday party of my classmate Kydal.  She had the party at her house and we did all sorts of fun activities (and just ran around in the backyard too).  It was a PJ Mask themed party so we all got our own capes and masks!

We decorated PJ Mask cookies with frosting and all sorts of sprinkles!

Here I am with my buddies James, Hunter and Charles!

We were having fun being silly (as usual)! 

I took my picture with all the PJ Masks - Owlette, Cat Boy and Gekko!

And I basically kept my new mask and cape on all weekend!

One of the new things that all my friends have been having at their parties is a pinata!  Here I am getting in a good swing at Kyndal's pinata!  

Another Birthday Party!

It was my turn next to go to a birthday party!  This party was for the 5th birthday of my best buddies Spencer and Elliott!

This place was fun - it had bikes like we have at school and track!

Here I am with one of the birthday boys!

There was a mini-ball pit too!  I'm in there with Spencer, Elliott and Henry somewhere!  There was also a zip line, climbing wall and trampolines!

The most we'd slow down for a picture! My best buddies - Miles, Henry, Spencer and Elliott! 

Birthday Party Central!

Owen and I got invited to several different birthday parties this fall/winter!  We made it to as many as we could!  The first party I went to was my friend Ford's 3rd birthday.  He used to be in my class before he moved to a new school.  He was the only boy with all girls!

Ford has his party at a cooking studio - I got to make my very own pizza!

Here was the finished product - it was good!

My friends Ridley and Clara were at the party, too!

Here I am with the birthday boy Ford! 

Here's the whole party! 

Park Fun!

We always have fun when we go to the park!  We like climbing, sliding, swinging, all of it!

Clara has watched me do the climbing wall and can do it by herself now!

I've been getting brave myself on the swings and can jump off now! 

Clara can't quite jump off the swing yet, but she can swing with no hands!

Sick Day!

Right after Halloween, I got to stay home with Grandma B because my eye was a little pink... I had a cold but other than that and my pink eye, I felt pretty good!

I looked through all of my books while I was there!

And we went outside to play on the backhoe for a little bit!

Here I am in action on the backhoe!  Just give me a pile of dirt!

As a feel better treat, Mom surprised us with Frozen dress up clothes!  It helped!

The next day Mom was worried about Owen's eye and mine was still a little pink, so we both stayed home with her!  We played pretty good together during the day but Mom was glad that we were all better to go back to school the next day!

Since I couldn't go to school, I sang a song from school for Mom and Owen!

Halloween!

Halloween finally came!  I love Halloween and all of the candy!

Clara and her friends all wore their Halloween shirts to school!

When we got home from school we decorated our pumpkins (with stickers from Grandma Pam) - Mom liked the no mess decorating!

Here's Clara hard at work and the finished product!

And here's mine!

We moved them out to the front porch for everyone to see! 

Then it was time to put our costumes on and go trick-or-treating!  Clara was a butterfly fairly and I was Optimus Prime.  Neither Clara nor I were a big fan of my mask! 

Here we are ready to go get candy in the neighborhood! 

Grandma B and Grandpa Mark came over to hand out candy at our house while we were gone!  Clara was being silly with her Halloween glasses!

We went around the neighborhood with Mila and her dad (they brought over the silly glasses)!  We all ran up to the doors by ourselves, said "trick-or-treat" and got our candy.  We even said "thank you" without being reminded each time!  Clara was kind of slow but Mila and I waited for her so she could keep up with us! 

Once we had enough candy we came home and helped hand out candy at our house!  Clara was pretty generous with her candy giving and I called out a few kids that didn't say thank you to us!

For a class assignment I had to sort and count all of my candy - I didn't mind doing that at all!  I got so much! 

Clemson vs GA Tech!

We both got to go to another game at Clemson - this time they were playing Georgia Tech!  We left school early and made a whole weekend of it. We stayed at a lake house and reconnected with some old friends!  Didn't get to see much of the lake since it always seemed to be dark or raining when I looked outside though.

We started the weekend with a happy hour at Tiger Town Tavern!  Mom and Dad said it looked a lot different during the daytime!

Our friend Harper showed up there with her parents and she brought art supplies!

We had fun but I don't think it was quite the happy hour Mom and Dad were used to!

We found a common bond with Harper pretty quickly - the iPad!  We had two other friends with us at the lake house too - Grant and Samantha.  But they were too little for the iPad!

The next day we went to campus for tailgating and the game!  These are all of Dad's best friends from college - the group has expanded a bit in the last 15 years!

Not sure how I had never seen this before - it was right next to our tailgate!  Excellent climbing statue!

Another first for us - we got tiger paws painted on our cheeks!

Rain was in the forecast all day - luckily it didn't rain during the tailgate!

But it sure did rain at game time!  Mom got us kid size plastic bags to wear to keep us as dry as possible!

We were good sports!

Here we are with Harper and her family!

We stayed for Clemson's first possession - which was long enough to see them score a touchdown - then headed back to the warm, dry lake house!
