Getting dirty

I helped put down new top soil and grass seed in the backyard today.

Barnyard Moosical

The 2nd grade school musical was today. I was a chicken. Doin’ the funky chicken strut!

Niskaday

The 35th annual Niska-Day stated with a parade, then we were off to the fields at Craig School for rides and games and fun. I volunteered at the Navigators booth for a while, and played a little Plinko. Then some ring toss at the German Club booth next door. Went on rides with friends from school and the neighborhood. And I won some goldfish at the Boy Scouts booth! Now I have pet goldfish. I wonder how long they'll live?

Flowers

Dad had to scout a location for a photo shoot for work today. It was at a garden center in the area, so Mom and I went too, to stand in as models and pick up some flowers.

Spring break

Went to  Washington D.C. and Baltimore over spring school break. Visited museums, monuments, an aquarium, a ballpark and more!

My first MLB game

Spring hike

Walked the Indian Ladder Trail at Thacher Park today.

Easter in Kingston

Spent Easter weekend in Kingston and G'ma & G'pa Mercier's. Check out this photo of Dad and me at 7-years-old. 1978 & 2016, respectively.

Also, I helped Grandma plant some flowers. Then I climbed the wall and rocks across the street at the old infirmary building, just like Dad used to back in the day.

Canstruction

The Navigators visited the NYS Museum today for Canstruction. The exhibit is a fundraiser for The Food Pantries for The Capital District. Teams of architects, designers, and students build structures almost entirely out of canned or non-perishable food items. And then visitors can vote for their favorites by dropping canned goods into bins by each structure. All the food ends up being donated to the Food Pantries.

Learning Fair

Today was the Hillside Elementary School Learning Fair. What do you want to know about sea creatures?

Bike ride

Mom, Dad and I pedalled along the Niskayuna bike path today.
