Halloween

It was chilly, rainy day, but we still had a Halloween parade at school, though my costume could've been mistaken for "kid in a Gap sweatshirt" instead of Jake from Jake and The Neverland Pirates. Things were considerably drier inside at the party and later, too, when I got to party again with my favorite KinderCare ladies. It was drizzly again that evening for trick-or-treating, but I didn't mind at all, as long as the neighbors on my street were handing me candy.

Face paint

When I went to my friend Sophia's birthday party, they offered face painting as an activity. I was going to get a scary spider for Halloween, but when Gabby got a Christmas tree, I changed mine to Santa, so we'd match. And just like the stores, I'm decorating for Christmas before Halloween is even over.

Then we played air hockey.

Harry Potter Night

October 25 was Harry Potter Night at my school. The place was decorated with stuff from the books/movies ad there were lots of fun activities to participate in. We played a Quidditch match (I was on the red team, Gryffindor), a potions class where I made "dragon's blood" with my friend Ty, a scavenger hunt, a Transfiguration room where I got a monster tattoo, and yummy snacks. Did somebody say cotton candy!?

My first trophy

We wrapped up the fall soccer season today against the orange team. It was chilly out there, so I bundled up and kept moving to stay warm. At the end of the game, coach Brian (who dressed like a pirate, since Halloween is close, and to remind us of our 'pirate' practice drill) handed out trophies to the team! It's my first trophy and I was proud to receive it.

Kingston visit

Went to Kingston to see G'ma and G'pa. I played in the backyard, helped clean out the birdhouse, played with Star Wars figures, read the Sunday comics, went to the playground, and a bunch of other fun stuff.

Wrapping up the season

It's been a fun soccer season with the Yellow team, and we've learned a lot from Coach Brian. This Saturday is the last game of the season. Go Lemonheads!
