Forgot...



So, we're just going to knock this out quickly tonight.  We can't really remember what we've been up to over the last two weeks but it's probably not very exciting, since mom didn't sense any great urge to help me with the blog.  So here are some highlights.....

Mom finally got her electric juicer so we've been having fresh squeezed OJ for the past two Sundays from the tree in our front yard.  It's pretty darn tasty but a little pulpy so I have to strain it extra.




Let's see- what else?  We had "player evaluations" for softball last Saturday.  All us softball players had to show off our skills on the field for the coaches before the draft.  There will be two teams in my age division, with Coach Tricia coaching one and a friend of ours coaching the other.  We were a little worried I might end up with the other coach (who is a super nice guy but not Coach Tricia).  It would have been a bit awkward, since Coach Tricia is also my pitching coach.  But good news- Coach T., asked dad to be her assistant coach so then I could stay with her.  Now, we just have to make sure my besties, Ella and Isabelle end up with me too........






On Sunday, Ella and I got to work on our Edible Car for a contest at school.  I've done this every year but didn't bring it up this year, so mom was hoping I forgot about it.  No such luck.  She got a  text from Ella's mom on Thursday asking if I wanted to do the car.  Deep sigh, from mom.  We actually had a great time and made ours out of a huge squash, rice krispy treats and pretzel rods.  We ate a good amount of our car ingredients ( except for the squash).




Once we finished that, Ella and I spent the time making videos on what to do with all your left over squash.   I posted it to my Youtube channel if you are interested.

Our car came in third in the school contest in case you were wondering!  That's it for our lame blog post for the week- we'll catch ya' later!
