Puppet Show at my Party

My uncle Per took these pictures of the puppet show that my moms put on at my birthday party, about me, with dinosaur puppets! They couldn't take pictures, since they were doing the puppet show! It was fun and we all wanted to join in!

Trolley Day in Portland


The week before my birthday, my Mommies and Jaxon and I went to Portland for a special "Trolley Day" they had promised me. I wore my fire fighter uniform. We stopped at Taco Bell in Portland and the Portland Fire Marshall complemented me on my cool uniform! After we picked up Mommies' new bed frame, we parked at a park and ride in Gresham, and got on the MAX  (light rail) and rode to downtown Portland. We got off and found the street car / trolley a few blocks away. We rode it to the South waterfront and got off in front of the Aerialtram. We paid to ride it to the top of the hill at OHSU and back down. I called it the sky-trolley! Then, we hopped back onto the street car / trolley and rode it to the end of the line and got off and walked 2 more blocks to the Old Spaghetti Factory.... where, we got to eat dinner on Wally the Trolley! After dinner, we rode the street car back to the MAX downtown and the MAX back to the park and ride and then, drove back home to Albany! That was a long day! On the MAX ride back, a nice young lady gave me $20 before she got off at her stop. She told my moms to use it to send me to college. We will be adding it to my savings account with some other money that I got for my birthday.

My 3rd Birthday Party at Rosse Posse Acres


My moms planned a fantastic birthday party for me, this year! We had it at Rosse Posse Acres, which is a working Elk farm with a cool petting zoo. My friends Max (from Salem) and Malakai (from Redmond) and my cousin Tycho (from Portland) and their parents, and my mom's friend Shani and her daughter Rylee, and my Grandma Bobbie and Grandpa Chris. We had Subway sandwiches, Costco salads, assorted chips, juice, milk, sweet tea, and cupcakes for a picnic lunch outside. Then, we learned about the elk and went on a guided tour, which ended at the petting zoo. The zoo included chickens, miniature horses and donkeys, pygmy goats, fallow deer, bunnies, a wallaby, and a Patagonian cavy (looks like a mythological "jackalope" without the antlers)! Then, we had a "dinosaur" egg hunt outside. And, then we had a dinosaur puppet show back inside the barn... and we had a triceratops pinata, too! And, at the very end we enjoyed a big chocolate cake from Costco with a dinosaur on it and I got to open my presents! It was a beautiful day and it was a super FUN day to celebrate my birthday with my friends (and family)! I had a LOT of fun!
