I Can't Wait for Halloween...meeeow

Back to School Already? 3rd Grade!

Last Day of School!

My Big Winter Recital

Right before Christmas I had a piano recital. I was nervous to be playing in front of so many people...the butterflies in my tummy were doing cartwheels. But as soon as I got onstage everything was OK and I played my songs without any mistakes. Everyone clapped really loud and that made me feel pretty good.

I had another recital last month and still had the butterflies. I played a song that made my piano teach cry.

School Picture 2008-2009

This is my second grade school picture. I had no front teeth, It didn't take long before they came in. (I went to the dentist and I have never had a cavity!!! Yeah!) I am enjoying school. I am reading at a fourth grade level and I love to write stories. I have a lot of friends in my class and neighborhood. I am on my second year of piano lessons. I don't always like to practice but with my moms help it's not so bad. I played in a Christmas Recital. My mom and dad are very proud of me.

Batman and Catwoman -2002-
We were the hit at the Halloween Party. This was the year my mom bought a snap and wind camera. She was sad that not many pictures turned out. My mom made my costume. It had feathers on it and it made me very itchy!!! I am sure CUTE!

Mommy's Little Angel!

We found the best pumpkin patch with a corn maze, a bounce house, pony rides and great places to take pictures. My mom told me if I was good and smiled pretty that I could pick out my very own pumpkin (bribery). My mom loves this picture of me. I hope you do too...

I'm wishing...for the one I love!
