Halloween 2012

This year I was Harry Potter for Halloween.

Before heading out "trick or treating", I went to a Halloween party at my best friend Ayden's house. 

It was a cold night.

Standing with Ayden.

Me with the whole gang.

Gulfport, MS - October 2012

In October we visited uncle Gordie and aunt Tammy. Unfortunately, Aunt Tammy was battling a bad cold during our visit and could not take part in all the fun.

We played outside a lot at uncle Gordie and Aunt Tammy's house.  Their house is located on  the  Naval Seabee  base.

Showing uncle Gordie how to play "Plants vs. Zombies".

Balance beam battle with uncle Gordie.

Uncle Gordie may have won this round.

But victory is short lived!  

A little base batting practice.

A REAL Hummer.

The USS Alabama.  WWII Battleship

On board the USS Drum submarine.

Sailing out to Ship Island

If we lose our captain, we're in BIG trouble!

Arriving on Ship Island

Eating the last of our rations.

Looking for food.

Losing pants.

And pants are now gone.

Uncle Gordie asking the whereabouts of said pants.

We made it off the island.  We had a great visit!

The Flying V's

This fall I joined the Flying V's. It is a running club. We get together twice a week to practice for the big pumpkin run later in the fall.

Our coach Mr. Pedretti  addresses the Flying V's.  He is the girl's high school cross country coach as well as my gym teacher.

Stretching is very important.

Mom was one of the adult helpers.

More stretching.

The day of the big 700 meter Pumpkin Run!

Me racing towards the finish line.

I set my best time!
