This was a short week, because I had a scheduled Monday off, and then we took Friday off to make a delivery to Kara for her church fundraiser. We did school, and recess, and Dad and I took some walks and went for some bike rides. Mom has been working hard on curriculum for next year and beyond, in addition to making icing and caramel sauce for Kara.

Icing Mom made for Kara.

The weather was good and Farmer's Park was open, so we went to play in the creek with Jonathan and Nick.

And Phoebe!

On Friday we met Kara at GG and Grandpa Kevin's.

While we were in town we stopped at BAM to get my bag of bricks for the month.

And I got Darth Vader's castle.

Vader "inspiring" Krennic to finish the Death Star.

Vader's meditation chamber with guards.

Vader meeting with Tarkin, Yularen, Thrawn, and Kallas.

I added this part - with Vader walking through the lines of Stormtroopers.

I also built some Ninjago MOCs this week:

Sora and Aron fighting Rapton on Empress Beatrix.

A Nindroid battle with Zane and Pixel.

Battle at the Village of Styx.

The Ninja fighting Aspheera.

And over the weekend I decided to build some ships...

A fleet of Japanese warships.

Including an aircraft carrier!

I am still reading And Then There Were None, and I am also reading Raid of No Return by Nathan Hale. This week we finished watching Andor season 2 and then watched Rogue One as soon as it was done. We also watched Much Ado About Nothing on Friday, Bringing Up Baby on Saturday, and The Princess Bride on Sunday.

And that was my week. Take care!
