Catching up to do.

I owe my readers a better update than they got last week. So, you're going to get a couple of weeks worth of material this time around. I've been working really hard at school on my letters and am proud every night to come home and show Mom and Dad what I can do.

Last weekend Mom and Dad had things to do at the mall so I got to play on the elevator in exchange for being good in the stores.

As some of you saw last week we had a lot of leaves fall. This happened after this picture was taken. Last weekend it was sunny and nice and we just had a few leaves so I was able to handle them with my tractor. Mom helped get my blade attached. (See Uncle Eric? I have a new blade, too.)

This tractor has just enough "Pierce Power" to do the job.

Then it happened. A rain and some wind and EVERY leaf in the county ended up on the ground. Drat.

Thursday I didn't have school so Mom and I headed to Incredible Pizza. We had the place to ourselves!

One of my new favorite games? Whack-A-Mole!

When we got home that day Mom helped me do crafts. I got to paint myself green!

Look at my foot!

That night I was saving the world in my fireman uniform and was able to help this poor fish with his (her?) dinner. Firefighter Fish meet Firefighter Pierce.

Yesterday our neighbors got a new driveway. There was a uniloader, a dump truck and a cement truck ... I watched for hours and was able to use my own equipment to pour a driveway by the stairs.

Tonight was the Halloween party at Wakonda. I hung out with Grant White and saw some other kids from my school. I picked out a pumpkin.

Stopped long enough for a family picture, thanks to Grant's Mom.

Once we were inside I decorated my pumpkin.

And loaded up for a hayrack ride around the course. It was a fun time (even if this photo doesn't look like it)!

That's it for now, gang. Much love to all ...
