Thanksgiving


2018-11-25


This week was Thanksgiving - and Daddy's birthday. A lot of things were going on all week.


Monday

Monday I had school and I read Little Red Riding Hood.

Tuesday

After school, we drove to the airport to get Mom, who flew home from Los Angeles. And then we went to eat at the Mall and visited the LEGO store.

I couldn't wait to ask Mom what she got me - I forgot to say hello.

Wednesday

Daddy was home when I got off the bus - and so was Mommy. We went to the store and got a televison for Daddy's birthday. Now we can watch movies together and play video games!


Thursday

Thursday we stayed home, except for a trip to buy Indiana Jones movies to watch on our new television. We watched Raiders of the Lost Ark and ate pizza. We also set up our tree.

Some new Harry Potter ornaments.

Daddy said we were his very own "people of Walmart."

Friday

We played video games for most of the day: we got two LEGO games, a motorcycle game, and a farming game. We also watched Temple of Doom.

Mom says the farming game is the most boring game in the world. But we like it.

Saturday

Mom and Dad decided to have a last minute birthday party for Daddy, so we had some people over: Grandma Wynne, Grandpa Al, Uncle Neil, Diane, Dan, Deb, and John. And Loki came, too! I told a lot of knock-knock jokes, and ran around like a maniac. It was a lot of fun. I also used my fart blaster to make everyone laugh. And after the party we watched Daddy's favorite Indy movie, The Last Crusade.

Sunday

We played video games, and watched Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. We also read three chapters of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

Doing some more farm work.

And that was my week. I'm happy to have Mommy home and happy Daddy had a good birthday. Take care everyone!

PS: Daddy says thanks for all the birthday cards!
