The birthday weekend continues
I went apple picking with Mom and Dad this morning and we picked a lot of apples! Two huge bags full. After that we headed home and played some games, read the Sunday comics and waited for... another party! The grandparents, Uncle Eric & Aunt Julianne and aunt Jill all came over to celebrate.

Birthday party!
Ain't no party like a Pokémon Party, 'cause a Pokémon party has snacks and pizza and cake and pin-the-tail-on-the-Pikachu and Pokémon bingo and a piñata and Pokémon cards and Pictionary and a movie. I invited 5 of my equally-Pokémon-obsessed friends over for some birthday fun.

It's my birthday!
Yup. I'm 7 today.
As a matter of fact, I was so excited, I woke up before 5:38 am, so I was able to celebrate the moment I turned 7. Eventually I made my way downstairs for breakfast, opened a couple of presents, then got on the bus for school. We had a little celebration in my class (mom brought in apple cider donuts), and later, after dinner, Mom and Dad brought me back to school for the Fall Social. I got to play with my friends on the playground, compete in a tug-of-war, play cornhole (beanbag toss), and eat more apple cider donuts.

Great friends at the Great Escape
We met Uncle Blue, Aunt Shanny, Aiden and Austin for breakfast this morning, then headed over to the Great Escape for rides and fun. After they had to go, we ran into my friend Dean and his family. Me and dad took him on his first roller coaster, The Canyon Blaster! He loved it and we rode it two more times, then played some games for prizes! Dean had to go, but we still had some time, so Dad took me for my first spin on the bumper cars! Wheeeeee-crash! Afterward we met G'ma & 'Pa for dinner, followed by ice cream at Martha's!

Fun run
On the way home from baseball, Dad drove past Town Hall where I noticed a lot of people gathered outside. It was time for the Nisky 5k Fall Fun Run. A kid's 100 yard dash, followed by a 5k, then a 1-mile run. You had to be pre-registered for the 5k, but anyone could do the dash and mile run. We ran into my spring league baseball coach and his family and we all convinced Dad to run the mile. He didn't do too bad, finishing in 9:50. I mean, I finished in 8:25 and walked for part of it, but not too shabby, Dad.

Fall sports Saturdays
In addition to my soccer league, I'm also playing in a baseball sandlot league, where we practice skills for the first hour, followed by pick-up ball games where the kids select teams, establish the batting order and switch fielding positions every inning. So each Saturday I play soccer in the morning for the "Purple Lightning" and Nisky Baseball in the afternoon.
