Throw a Penny in a Fountain

Did you know that if you throw a penny in a fountain you can make a wish and it will come true? I can't tell you my wish but I'll give you a hint... London, princesses, and me!

Run for the Water

Here are Mommy, Daddy and I before the race.
 It was still dark out!

On Halloween Mommy, Daddy, Miss Veronica, and I all got up when it was still nighttime and went to run in the Run for the Water. Mommy says that it is a really important run and by our participation we will help little kids have fresh water that they can drink. We decided it would be really fun for Mommy, Miss Veronica, and I to dress as turtles and for daddy to dress as a bunny rabbit. The story of the tortoise and the hare is a really good story. In the real story the tortoise wins the race, but in our race daddy won. He is an amazingly fast racer! I couldn't believe how fast he ran! Mommy, Miss Veronica and I were a long way from finishing and Daddy was already done! He is awesome!

After the race... the bunny and two running turtles.

Here's the back of Mommy and Miss Veronica's shirts.

The running turtles... aren't they beautiful!

Boy that Miss Veronica is so silly!

The sun came up!

Here I am with Mommy and Daddy after the race.

Princess Witch

For Halloween I'm going to be a princess witch. Auntie Aya had her studio set up for Halloween and she took a few photos of me in my costume. You'll have to wait until next week to see me with all my friends trick-or-treating and all my candy-candy-candy!!

Amelia... Smile!

Happy Fall!!

This weekend Daddy, Mommy, Auntie Aya, Uncle Eric, Anderson, Emery and Tia all went on our annual trip out to the pumpkin patch in the country. There were goats to feed, pumpkins to crawl on, a pumpkin coach, and funny pictures with cutouts for your heads and hands. There were also horses to ride but mommy said that I wasn't big enough to ride the horse. Maybe next year when I'm five! We had a really fun time.

What a purdy family!

I loved feeding the goats. Uncle Eric bought goat food so we could all give it a try. Their whiskers tickled my hands and made me laugh. Some of the goats must have been really hungry because they were crazy about getting the food. They would reach their entire heads through the fence to get the food and push eachother out of the way to get to my hands. I think their mommies need to teach them about sharing.

I think Emery liked feeding the goats too. Anderson was a little scared of them but he laughed and laughed when Emery fed them. He's such a cute boy.

I love my cousins!

I've included some other photos from our trip for your enjoyment. Have a great day!

Anderson and Emery were really interested
in the strawberry plants. Maybe they're going to be farmers.

Happy Halloween!!

Birthday Party!

I am ready to party!

This year mommy and daddy threw me the best birthday party EVER! We had a bounce house with a slide and TWO pinatas! It was the best day ever! I've included some photos of the party for your enjoyment.Oh yes, Auntie Aya took all the photos. She's amazing. xoxo Amelia

The cupcake tower!

Here I am with some of my friends: Shane, Tea, Zach,
Pierce, Sydney, Reagan, Lauren, and Lilly

The piñata was awesome! We all had several chances to hit it.

Candy, candy, candy!!

Me in my princess party hat.

The cupcakes were beautiful!

Blowing out the candle!

I love cupcakes!!

Me and my best pal, Sydney.

Oh Zach... how I love you so!

Catherine, Me, Zach, and Reagan.

I think Anderson and Emery wanted to play in
the bounce house. But they were too small!

Auntie Jessica is such a crazy girl!

I love Nami!

My New Puppy!

Ok, technically she's not mine. She's Auntie Aya and Uncle Eric's dog Reece. But while they've been away on vacation in Paris she's been at our house and I've decided she's my dog too. We have such fun together. She sure does love bones. When I get home from school she comes running over to say, "hi!" Then she runs and gets her bone and brings it to me like she's showing it off. It's very funny. I've been teaching her to sit for me. I take her bone, hold it high up in my hands, and then say, "SIT REECE." She's really good at it and then I give her. I think I might be the dog whisperer because I really have a knack for dog training.

I love it when daddy picks me up from school so we can head down to town lake for a walk and she's there in the car. She almost sits on me the whole ride. We have the best time. She sure does make me laugh. One day this week daddy picked me up and Reece wasn't in the car. I got very sad but daddy told me that after Reece goes home to her family we might still be able to take her down for our town lake adventures. I sure hope so.

Ok, I'm off to school. Nami comes today and I'm so excited! Yippee!!!

I can do anything!

So here was the wall.

Last weekend I was at Reagan's birthday party at Wazoos playnazium. I had such a good time! It is full of all these bounce houses, slides, and tunnels. There was this one HUGE bounce house with this gigantic wall I had to climb. At first I thought that I couldn't climb it but then I decided to give it a try... and I did it! Here are some pictures of me climbing the wall.

I had to climb over this big tube to reach the wall.

I CAN DO ANYTHING!!!

ugh... this is tough!

Almost there!

I made it!!

The reward! A HUGE SLIDE!

Camping!

Last weekend Mommy, Daddy, and I went camping! And guess where we went... our back yard! Daddy set up our big tent and we ALL slept out there.

I asked Mommy and Daddy if Chloe could come out and sleep with us too and they said YES! It was awesome! I think Chloe thought it was awesome too. She sniffed every corner of the tent and then finally snuggled in with us. Later on in the night Mommy was woken up by Chloe trying to get under the covers. I guess she was cold. So Daddy took her back in the house. I think she was sad because she then sat in the window and meowed for us.

We had so much fun that the next night we slept out there too! It was funny to get up in the morning, walk inside the house, and get ready for school.

I love camping... and smores!

Did I tell you Mommy and Daddy brought my
princess tent inside the big tent?

This is the best night ever!
