Parks!

It was a week filled with parks...both indoor and outdoor!

Dad made a quick trip to Baltimore so Thursday night Mom and I had the evening to ourselves. We used our time wisely and stopped at the park at Perkins school and played for a bit. It's one of my favorites!

(I'm pretty serious about things when I'm at the park.)

My school pictures came back this past week. I felt pretty good about all four poses. Pose 1.

Pose 2.

Pose 3.

Pose 4.

Saturday Mom and I ran to the mall to pick up a couple of things and I got to play in the indoor mall park as a warm-up for our next stop ...

... an outdoor park with Grant Fletcher!

We had a lot of fun with my soccer ball.

There was even an old caboose to climb on!

Today after church I grabbed my clubs and hit balls in the open field down the street, which is kind of like a park. It was fun and I played really well!

That's it for now. Have a great week, everyone!
