Alden's 4th Birthday Party

This saturday morning we went to the Nature Center to celebrate Alden's birthday. I met Alden three years ago when we were both about 9 months old. Amazing isn't it?

First Friday Summer Hike

This Friday daddy and I went on our first Friday summer hike. Last summer we ended our hiking with a long hike to Rattlesnake Lodge, which we never found. This time it was different though. Daddy knew right were it was.

Summer has begun!!

Goodbye Toddler Bed; Hello Big Girl Bed

I've been trying to get this posted for awhile; I've just been super busy having so much fun :-)

Sometime around the middle of May we went to the Habitat and found this really great (twin) headboard/footboard. It was old so it needed some work. Mom and dad came up with an idea for it and we all put it into action. Here are some pics of our work...
This is me helping mama sand it down
Here I am helping mama prime it
And here it is in my room!! (I picked out the sheets)
Mama snuck this picture of me sleeping kinda funny in my new bed.

Mom is still looking around for a quilt (she's VERY particular); but I LOVE my new bed. Oh, and mom still has plans to paint my bookshelf and nightstand to match my new bed :-)

This is what my room used to look like (sorta, this picture was taken Jan. 2008...well everything but the rocking chair was still in the same place)

WACP Graduation

Today was my first ever preschool graduation. We had such a great last day of school. Near the end a lot of the parents/grandparents came to watch us play our gameshow, put on a show (see video below), and get our certificates (I got the Most Cooperative award!). Below is a picture of me and my teacher, Ms. Louise.

Mall Carnival

Human Bubble Art

I was the only willing (kid) to go first! It was so much fun!

Daddy's Little Drummer Girl

Mama took this picture of daddy and me at the Tourist game this past Saturday. Daddy was playing a gig with Chuck Beattie there.

Final Kindermusik Graduation

Tuesday was my very last ever Kindermusik class with Miss Beth. I've had a ton of fun in all of my classes. Mamma first enrolled me in Kindermusik back in August of 2006. Check out some pictures from my graduation class, one of my special lunch at Cats and Dogs, then me chasing the pigeons at 'pigeon' (pritchard) park.

This was my very first graduation certificate

Padmé Amidala

My friend, Matthew had his 5th birthday party yesterday and it was a Star Wars party. I decided that I wanted to go as Padme so mom quickly put a 'costume' together for me. When we got there we got to make lightsabers! It was so awesome.

Go Tourist!

We went to another Asheville Tourist game this Thursday! It started to rain, but that didn't put a damper on our fun.

Field Trip To The Big School

Yesterday my preschool went on a field trip to West Buncombe Elementary School. It was such a great field trip. We took a tour of the school, got to see the school buses, went to the media center and worked on the computers, visited with two kindergarten classes, played, ate lunch, and watched the Billy Jonas concert! Like I said, it was wonderful. :-) I can't wait to go to kindergarten, it looks like so much fun.

Feliz Cinco de Mayo

"Take Me Out To The Ballgame...

Mama got free tickets to the Asheville Tourist game last night and it was so much fun. Tommy met us up there too. We stayed until the 7th inning and sang "Take me out to the ballgame"!
I thought Ted E. Tourist was so awesome and had to say "Hi!" every time I saw him. I hope we get to go to more games (we got two more free tickets already)
