Trefethen

We visited wine country on Saturday. As usual, I love to see Shannon, and I got a bunch of small toys to play with, so it was pretty fun. Even cooler is that I learned that my photo of "skull guy" was featured on the Trefethen website as part of the shots taken of their Halloween decorations. Apparently, several people asked about which member took the shot and they were surprised to discover that the "member" was a 6 year old boy (at the time of the shot).

My first publication---cool!

Best Game Ever

Last night was the best baseball game ever. It didn't start out that way. There was a lot of traffic, and it was very cold in the ballpark. Once the game started, it got even worse. The A's pitcher, Dama Eveland, was rocked for 3 runs in the 1st. But the A's came back and took the lead off of Dice-K in the bottom of the innning. The scored stayed that way until late in the game. Then, the Sox managed 2 runs to tie it all up.

Now even though it was a school night, and even though I had to get up early tomorrow, and even though I had a playdate after school, and even though I had baseball practice, and even though I had scouts after that...Daddy let me stay up for the game. (Clearly someone with the right priorities). I stayed up really late...and got on TV!



And, happily, the A's won in 12 innings. What an amazing game.

Happy Easter

I got up early this Easter Sunday to hunt for eggs in the yard. I was so excited that I neglected to put on shoes or change out of my jammies. I found 24 out of 33 eggs left around. There was lots of good stuff in the eggs including chocolate, magnets, and toy cars.

After this, we went to church, and I had to wear a collared shirt. Yuck. I hate collars, and I hate buttons. But I put up with it and ended up wearing my Easter outfit all day.

After we returned, I hunted down the remainder of the eggs and participated in a photo shoot. Mommy has the family photos, but here are some Aidan ones.

Happy Easter.

New Shoes

My feet are getting bigger. I got some cool new shoes over the weekend. Some silver sneakers to replace my "bouncy ball" sneakers and a new set of spikes. My spikes are customizable--you can change the color and logos of them with inserts. Right now, they're red since I'm on the Red Sox. I like my new stuff.
