The week was a blur ...

This past week flew by. Lots went on and, for some reason, Mom and Dad seemed to have the shakes with the camera. There were some good shots and lots of blurry ones so bear with me. Last Sunday I went to a new park that had a cool playset. Dad didn't get the photos uploaded so I'll ask him to include them in this week's blog. This park had several cool slides!
And a sound game where you could here the person at the other end of the tube as clear as day!
The best part of this park? The round ladder that I could use for bin climbing practice. Up, up, up the outside of the bin ...
... and down, down, down the inside of the bin.
After school this week Mom and I worked on making the perfect paper airplane. Thanks to YouTube, we found a great design.
Yeah!
Thursday was the ultimate. Mom found out about National Fire Prevention Week activities in Des Moines and one of them was a promotion with our favorite pizza place. Real honest to goodness firemen were delivering pizzas and testing smoke detectors. They came to our house!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And, I got to go out into the truck! They even turned their lights on for me! (Of course, at this time Grandma Maggy was driving by not knowing what was going on and freaking out!) Thanks for setting this up, Mom ... you're the best!
Saturday (yesterday) Dad and I went to Chariton to see Papa Jack and Grandma Margaret. It was her birthday this weekend so we took a plant and had a good visit.
They both liked my farm set-up and were impressed with the number of acres I covered.
Last night, after Chariton, Mom and I met Grant and his Mom at the circus! It was a lot of fun and we stayed the whole time. Elephants, tigers, acrobats ... it was really great!
Today? Well, today was a chilli dinner at Boulevard. It was great to see so many old friends and catch up. Everyone was doing great. It was good to be back.
(Dad had hoped for a couple pictures of me playing with my friends but we looked like giant, colorful blobs we were moving so fast. No photos for you, Dad!)

Have a great week, gang!
