March 5, 2016: RoboGaston 2016

I was picked at the end of 3rd grade for the Robotics team. We've been working hard all year for our competition on March 5. I got to drive our robot in the competition. I was really nervous, but our team did great. We placed 8th and get to go to regionals. And our team won the Judges' Award which was for the best all-around team in the whole competition.

February 25 - 27, 2016: Trip to Pennsylvania

Mommy and I took a trip to Pennsylvania to see some old friends from high school. We had a wonderful time and I didn't want to leave. Mommy and Billy took me to ReptileLand and Hershey's Chocolate World. I loved all the Reeses at the Chocolate World. We got to go on a trolley tour of the city, make our own chocolate bars, have a chocolate tasting.It was a lot of fun!

February 1 - 25, 2016

Mommy was really sick with bronchitis so we didn't really get to do a lot for a couple of weeks. But I did my Indo Board in the Talent Show at school and we went to an West African dance in Charlotte with my mom's boss from work. I also got to practice for my Robotics Competition at a special event at school.

January 2016

I started off the year with falling and hitting my head on a rock at Nancy's house. I had to have my head glued! We got snow! And I finally got to use my snowboard! Mommy also took me Super Target for the first time which was HUGE! We watched the Seahawks play the Panthers. Sadly, my Seahawks lost, but it was fun. Only me and one other person were cheering for the Seahawks at the restaurant. But I had fun anyway!
