• A Pittsburgh Steelers batbag.
• Modern Warfare 2, an X-box game

To all my relatives in Arizona, we'll finally be coming there in Thanksgiving, So I will see all of you there! (YAY!)

Love all of ya!

My Sister, Karli's Birthday Surprise

On the day before my sister's birthday, she was talking all about Guinea Pigs and saying she wanted one. Of course, everyone was teasing her about it and saying she couldn't and wouldn't get one. But later that day, our parents came home with "something," (can you guess?) Yep, it was a Guinea Pig! I couldn't believe my parents would actually get her a pet! I guess I was wrong!

Baseball Season OVER (sorry, no pictures)

It's been a while since I last posted, so I think I would like to post about playing baseball. Our parents signed everyone up for baseball (tommy-teeball, madison-baseball, karli-softball, and me-baseball.) Well finally, the season is over, and today, after church, we had our "end-of-the-season party," and it was fun. We played some ate some hamburgers and hot dogs, played keep-away with a baseball, played some video games, and even played horseshoes in the backyard. Hopefully I'll be able to play Fall Ball and have another chance to play baseball with the same coach. I really enjoyed playing Baseball!

Yu-Gi-Oh Cards!!

I recently remembered an old show I used to watch all the time called "Yu-Gi-Oh" that was a about a card game. I won't get too far into the details, but I was searching the internet, and came upon a custom card maker. These are what i came up with.

2nd Game [] 7-8 [] GAME BALL!

Yesterday, We had our second baseball game! Our team is called the "Wildcats" and we played pretty good. We didn't win, but I know we deserved too. After every game, Coach Nick promises a 'game ball' to the best performing player at the end of the game. I got it! He said that 'He plays hard defense and isn't afraid of anything. He took one for the team (I got wacked in the butt up at bat by the pitcher), smacked a ball to the outfield, and stole 2nd and 3rd base.' I couldn't believe it was me! It was awesome! So afterwards, we went and ordered pizza with my friend at my house.

Baseball Feaver!

I am finally starting to play a new sport, and, as you can see in the title, I am playing baseball! We've had a couple of practices and had our first game the most recent Wednesday. We got beat pretty bad, but it was our first game. My next practice is this coming Monday, So I'm looking forward to that!

Spring Break

Well it sure has been a while since I last posted, and I'm already running out of subjects, so I guess i'll talk about Spring break. Spring break is finally coming up soon and I hope all of us can take advantage of it. I'm getting tired of school and stuff. I finally started playing in a little league baseball team and hope to win a lot of games during our break. I like baseball and am having a great time with my best friend.

Have a good spring everyone

SUPER BOWL XLIII!

VS

Today, my family and I are going to watch Super Bowl XLIII, not to mention some friends that are going to be invited! Right now its about 11:00 AM and the Super Bowl goes live on 4:00 PM! The teams playing are none other than the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Arizona Cardinals!

I hoped both teams would make it and it's hard to choose a team that I like more, but I am going to root for the Steelers.

STEELERS!!!

STEELERS!!!

STEELERS!!!

13

Yep, that's right! The day has finally come when I turn 13 years old! I had an excellent birthday (in a way.)

And when I mean 'in a way,' I mean that I got the stomach flu. I spent most of last night puking

But I really enjoyed my birthday.

My presents were:

1.) Risk, the board game. I really enjoy playing it with my uncles Jay, and John.

2.) And some birthday money! ($50)
