New toy!












Bo running after the ball……..

This afternoon I went with Bo to the grass field just beside our home and I took the ball pitcher along. Well Bo loved it! Every time I threw the ball and then Bo raced after it to get it. When he brought it back to me I gave him a (doggy) candy… but Bo didn’t want it, he didn’t have the time for it. He only wanted to run after that ball and didn’t take the time to eat his candy.

Suddenly there came up a black cat. That cat also liked to watch the ball. But suddenly Bo was very amused by the cat and forced up the cat….. Man that scared me to death. I didn’t have Bo by his lead and so he went off straight through all the gardens after that cat. But fortunately Mom called him and then nevertheless he came over to me…..ppppfff..... That was so scary man! But we had a nice time playing with the new toy. Only when we got home I had to hide the ball pitcher, because that new toy was nevertheless a very cool toy for Bo and he wouldn’t leave it alone.

Go and have some talks at MSN.... bye…. see you tomorrow!

Playing!












Evy, Bo and Zoey.....

This afternoon Mom and Bo were waiting for me when school went out. Then when we went home we ran into Zoey, Evy and their owner. Man what did they play all together with the ball…. Running man!

All three chased after the ball. Most beautiful part was when we did as if we were throwing the ball but we didn’t, all three were looking for the ball and couldn’t find it then…. So great it was! Bo is very tired now, he will sleep soon I think…...

This afternoon over lunchtime the teachers didn’t allow me to go home to let Bo out. There would be a very big fire on a ship in Velsen and for this reason nobody was allowed to go outside because there was a big danger that some wrong goods from the ship would escape caused by the fire. That was, however, very annoying because Bo had to go out. So I called Mom and she returned home from work immediately.














The boat in Velsen which still is on fire.....

Mom said that Bo was very glad that she came home at 14.00PM to let him out, man he had to pee so much!

Don’t feel very nice, got a cold and got a stomach-ache, go to bed... bye… see you tomorrow!

Kennemer?












Kennemer Lyceum...

Tonight Mom and Dad are visiting the Kennemer College because there is a parent’s meeting…..
However, it all will be very exciting. I think it’s a very cool school, but I’m not sure if Dad will like it.
Perhaps Mark will go to that school too....

Go upstairs... bye… see you tomorrow!

Kart racing!










Me in a racecar……....

This afternoon Ruud called to ask if I wanted to go with him and Roy, Thomas and Michiel to the kart racing.

Well I liked that, so we all went together to the kart racing. Man that is really cool! At first we all had to put on a racing suit and get the right size of helmet and then we had to wait a very long time before we could hit the road. Because it was my first time, at first someone drove behind me just to see if everything went well. But after 2 rounds I had to go on my own. Man…a couple of times someone banged me at the back…....Wooouuuuw that gave a big bang! Man it’s going so fast, but it really was so great!











Me, Roy, Michiel and Thomas just before we hit the road......













2 minutes before the start...

Afterwards we all went to our place and had dinner all together. It really was a great day…..

Go upstairs…… bye… see you tomorrow!

Vistiting schools again!













Physics lessson at the Kennemer College....
This photo is on the website of the Kennemer College at 'open dag' nr. 23.

Yesterday morning we visited some more schools. At first we went to the Kennemer Lyceum, which was a rather nice school and afterwards to the Sancta Maria in Haarlem.

Man that was a very busy and messy school! There was a boy from grade 1 that showed us around the school. But he didn’t have anything to tell, the only thing he said was that this was the French room and that the English room and if you asked him something about the school or the lessons which are given in he several rooms he didn’t know the answer. Also the teachers only let the children do everything and didn’t do anything themselves not even tell the visitors what they are doing in that school. They didn’t even tell what kind of lessons they are given in that room..... Very, very strange that was. No it wasn’t a nice school at all…....

At noon we have been to Willemse to buy food and toys for Bo. Afterwards we went to Ruud and Femke where Joey and Bo played together for the rest of the afternoon. Man what can those 2 dogs play and won’t get tired at all... playing, playing and more playing…..so cool to see man!






Joey and Bo.... ..

At the photograph are Joey and Bo sitting with Dad, Bo is constantly kissing Joey….. so sweet!

Later!

Open doors evening!











Kaj Munk College…..

Tonight after my trumpet lessons we went to Hoofddorp because there was an open doors evening at the Kaj Munk college.

Man what a cool college that is! Everything really looked great; everywhere computers and the teachers were so nice. I also run into Mees who also was curious what kind of school this was. In former days Mees and I were together at the same crèche and up to previous year we were on the same school. Last year he left school because he and his parents moved to Hoofddorp and now he is at another school in that village. Was nice to see him back…. Perhaps he goes to the Kaj Munk College, you’ll never know.

Tomorrow we will visit some other schools in Haarlem. But if they are as great as this one…. I don’t know….

Go to bed....bye…. see you tomorrow!

Dad’s birthday!












Today January 25th is Dad’s birthday, well Dad happy birthday!

Mam and I bought him a lot of presents yesterday. After that I went on my own to the village centre and bought him a beautiful pen. This morning we gave Dad all his presents. Well he was very, very glad with so many presents and he loved my special one the beautiful pen very much, he immediately did put it right into the pocket of his shirt.

Tonight Dad came home pretty late from work but then we still had a very nice evening, the neighbors came over to wish him a happy birthday and they stayed for dinner. Mom made us all a very nice dinner, a table full with all kinds of very nice bites, an entire dinner table full, really delicious!

Now it’s already pretty late so I go to bed ….. bye… see you tomorrow!

Jomtien?










Main Street of Jomtien....

This afternoon Bo played outside with Evy and zoey. Those 2 are also Jack Russell’s and they live a couple of blocks for our place. Zoey is approximately 1 1/2 years old and almost just as large as Bo is. Evy is 1 month older than Bo but much, much smaller than Bo. Man those three dogs are having so much fun when they are playing together on the field one block from our home, so cool man! Bo now has completely run out of energy and is sleeping like a rose now...

Tonight I looked at the traveling-papers Grandpa and Grandma left behind and they say that they are in the city of Jomtien now. Never heard of it but it must be somewhere on the coast of Thailand. So I started to surf on the internet to see where Jomtien is and I run into a couple of nice pictures of it. So I found one, it must be the main street of Jomtien….. Grandpa if you read this is, is that correct? Looks nice over there!

Go and watch some TV now….. bye…. see you tomorrow!

Yes, 2nd place!












Triple X after the bowling....

This afternoon after school we immediately went to the bowling for the school bowling tournament.

Man we played fabulous! My second game really was spectacular, so great! In the entire game I only missed 2 pins and made a 189 pins game. Woooouuuuwww... that really was unbelievable!











Romay is throwing her ball….....

Of all 12 groups who participated today we were the number 1. Of all the schools who participated up till now we’re the number 2 (school-bowling tournament already started a couple of weeks ago, every week 12 other groups are playing their games). That one school which played a couple of weeks ago, just was a little better then we were today, they had a total of 890 pins and we had 870 pins. Next week there will be another session in which the last schools will play their games.

Well as far as I can tell right now, it looks like we’re going to the finals which will be played in Schiedam just like last year…... cool man! I can hardly wait, that’s so exciting!

Go and watch some TV now…. bye…see you tomorrow!

Monday, January 22, 2007

Tomorrow the school bowling tournament!











The Triple X team......

I’ve been to the bowling tonight. It really went great, I hope that I will play that great tomorrow at the school bowling tournament as well!

So exciting! Hope we’ll hit enough pins, so we are able to go to the finals.
Go upstairs.... bye….. see you tomorrow!

4th prize!












Prize distribution at the bowling..

This morning we left early at about 8.30 because I had to be at the bowling house at 8.45AM to play for the club championship. At 9.15 AM I was already throwing my first ball in the first game.

Those first games went pretty good. As a result, I had to throw in the finals. In those finals I didn't play very strong, but nevertheless I became 4th ! At 12.15 PM was the prize distribution. I got a silver medal, cool eh? Well I’m so proud of that!











My medal.... the 4th prize!

It was a good practise game for the school-bowling tournament we’re having next Tuesday...

Go and do something about my homework, TOPO, Asia.... that's exactly the part where Grandpa and Grandma are staying right now, Thailand, Vietnam, China and much more.

Have you ever heard of the Hoangho River, or the Jangtsekiang River or the cities Rangoon, Harbin or Woehan? Well, I’ve not….
Go and do something about my TOPO now…..

See you later…...

Practicing with the triple X!




















Beautiful t-shirt eh?

This afternoon Dad came home with a couple of t-shirts that he just had taken along at the Makro. Mom had made a logo on the computer for our school bowling team. We have printed it on special sort of paper and attached it with the flat-iron on the t-shirts, it really became pretty cool man!

Tonight we went with our bowling team to the bowling to practise ones more and we all wore our new T-shirts…….

Yes, the Triple X is going to win!

Go and do something about my homework now, because tomorrow there is the club championship at our bowling house, so I can’t do anything on my homework tomorrow. Tomorrow morning at 8.45AM I have to check in at the bowling house.

Bye.... see you tomorrow!

Thailand!








The River Chao Praya in Bangkok....

Today Grandpa and Grandma called from Bangkok. They are having a nice time over there.

They gave use a piece of paper with on it all the things that they are going to see in Bangkok. According to that paper today they will make a boat trip on the river the Chao Praya which goes straight through Bangkok. They will come along the very famous temple the Wat Arun.

Well I of course immediately sat down to the computer and started up the internet to see what that’s it all about. Man that temple is beautiful! There is on the internet that the temple is all decorated with mosaic of multicolored Chinese porcelain. They say that you must see the temple from the river Chao Praya at sunset. Then the colors must be very, very beautiful.

Well Grandpa and Grandma hope you have a very, very nice day today!

Till later!

Butterfly garden damaged!











The butterfly garden in Artis......

This afternoon after school I saw on the Internet that the butterfly garden in Artis was damaged by yesterday’s storm!

They saved a lot of butterflies but quite a lot escaped too bad eh? I’ll hope that the can repair the butterfly garden pretty soon. We visited the garden in Artis a few weeks ago and we stayed in the garden quite a long time. It was so cool man when those butterflies come to you and sit down on your arm. Such a pity, that it’s so badly damaged.

Today happily there was a lot less wind. Timmie and his hutch returned back to his place in the back of the garden and seems rather happy now. At last Bo also became rather quiet again this afternoon. He remained restless all night and day, now he is sleeping nicely.

Also go to bed now....bye…. see you tomorrow!

Storm!















Storm in The Netherlands....

This morning there already was a big storm and on TV they called out a weather alert again (last week there was one as well!)
This morning there was a tree just beside our school that went down by the storm, quite near the window of our classroom. The tree just missed our window!

When I went home for lunch I saw in our garden that the roof of Timmies hutch was off by the wind! Man, I was so lucky that Timmie still was in his hutch. Fortunately I was at home with Mark, so we have put Timmie with his hutch in the barn.

Bo was totally upset. He was barking very loud, I heard him bark when I was still outside our home! I could hardly calm him down.

This afternoon when I returned home from school BO was still upset, and he still is constantly running back and forwards along the big window in our living room and is crying all the time…This is so pitiful man!

Later this afternoon Mark, Romay and I went to the bowling, just to practice for next Tuesday when we are having the school bowling tournament. Yes, we have to practise, the triple X, that’s us! After the bowling we went to my home and played with Bo for awhile and Romay stayed and had dinner with us.












The triple X.....

Man, Grandpa and Grandma just called us for Schiphol (Amsterdam airport). They arrived at Schiphol this morning at 10.00AM because they would fly at 13.00 PM for their vacation to Thailand. Now in the meantime it’s 08.00PM in the evening and they are still at the airport. Grandma was secretly calling us from the plane. They are still waiting already for 3 hours in the plane to leave Schiphol!!!!

There is just one runway in use at Schiphol and the pilots don’t want to take off, they say that there is too much wind and that it’s too dangerous to leave now......... Man, that’s really annoying, all that people in that plane will be very fed up.....

Now the wind is blowing very, very hard, man you won’t believe it! All the programs on TV are canceled and there is only extra news concerning the storm. Man it really is a mass over here! The central station in Amsterdam is closed, there is not one train leaving in the entire country! Everywhere trees are falling down and roofs of the houses are blown away…....bbbbrrrrr..... it really is spooky!

Oh... I hear just right now that Dad saw on the teletext that Grandpa and Grandma’s plane just left at 8.20 PM ………… he... he.... at last!

Go upstairs… I hope I will get some sleep tonight, man the wind is making such a noise… bye…see you tomorrow!

Puzzle is ready!













It’s beautiful eh?

This afternoon after school I worked on the last part of my essay….I’m so happy that it’s finished now!

After that we went with a couple of kids from my school to the bowling, just to practise for the school bowling tournament that will start next Tuesday.

Mark, Romay and I are in the same team and we want to practise tomorrow afternoon again if it’s possible, it’s so nice to throw another ball just the three of us. Only tomorrow Mark also has to go to the soccer training, I’ll hope we will succeed in arranging it all.

Tonight after dinner Dad and I have finished the puzzle. Woooouuuuw... what is it cool eh? It’s so great that puzzle!

Go upstairs....bye… see you tomorrow!

A hard day’s work!




















My new essay……..

Today we had the CITO test again, man I love it! So great all those questions, really so great to do!

Today after school I have only worked on my essay. I still had so much to do and tomorrow I have to hand in the essay in the draft and Friday I’ll have to hand in the printed version of the essay……….

Ppppfffhhhh... This afternoon I worked on it for 3 hours and after dinner another hour. Man I’ve got so much pain in my arm just from all that writing.

Go to bed... bye…. see you tomorrow!

CITO test!








3 days long the CITO test...

Today we had the CITO test at school. We got a Dutch 1 spelling test, then arithmetic and afterwards we got Dutch 2 language explanatory and the last test was a world orientation one. The last test was pretty difficult man! Tomorrow we’ll get the following tests, geography and history.

Go upstairs....bye…. see you tomorrow!

Painting on the wall!











Beautiful place eh?

This morning Dad has placed the painting which Grandma made of Bo on the wall. It’s hanging on the wall between the bookcase and the computer cupboard.

This afternoon I have been with Bo to the cycle-racing track here, there was a foot-race. That is a running race that’s here every year in our village. Mark also participated and had to run his race at 13.00 PM. He had to do the short track of 1,2 km on the cycle-racing track and wasn’t going all the way through our village.

Mark started very well, but then he suddenly got a lot of pain in his knee and had to stop his race. To bad!

After that I had to go home because we had to go to the MediaMarkt to look for a new printer. Our printer was not working properly anymore, it made all the printouts pink and we couldn’t get that well again. I do understand why it stopped working properly we made so many printouts with it, thousands and thousands. So I think it’s simply entirely worn out.












Here Dad and I are just coming out of the MediaMarkt with the new printer....

At the MediaMarkt they fortunately had the brand Mom wanted so badly, an Epson. Our old printer was also an Epson and that always worked pretty good.

After buying that new printer we have been to Overveen just to take a look at the Kennemer lyceum.











The Kennemer Lyceum...

That seems a nice school to me. The only problem is it’s pretty difficult to get there by bus. There is no bus from our home going to that area. If you, however, want to go to that school by bus you have to change 3 times and than still you have to walk a big part. That’s so stupid man!

After looking at that school we went home and we connected the new printer to the computer. It really makes beautiful printouts man!

I will pack my schoolbag for tomorrow now. Tomorrow we’re having our pre CITO test…. the pre final school test….. exciting..... see you tomorrow!

Saturday, January 13, 2007

Boooooooo........












A painting that grandma Sita made of Bo...... cool eh?

This afternoon we went with grandpa and grandma to Loods 5 in Zaandam to see if they had a frame for the painting what grandma made of Bo. They had a very beautiful frame, entirely black that really looks great with the painting.
Above at the photo you can see the result how beautiful it became. So great of grandma that she made such a beautiful painting of Bo don’t you think? I am so very, very happy with that painting!

Bo is not even 4 months old and now there already is a painting of him. I think that’s so very cool man! It will get a beautiful place in our living room.
Grandma thanks!

Go upstairs… bye… see you tomorrow!

Friday, January 12, 2007

Oooohhhhh.....Bo!













Bo is lying on the keyboard and is playing with his doggy Woeffie..... In fact he is sitting on mom’s lap!

Today I don’t have very much to tell you all. I just went to school as I normally do on Friday’s and after school I immediately started doing my homework which I have to hand in on Monday.

So that’s it for today, nothing more to tell you, no exciting things at all, that’s why I say…bye see you tomorrow!

Thursday, January 11, 2007

Woooouuuuuwww... that’s delicious!


















That’s what a good hamburger looks like! Only I want some cheese and extra bacon on top of it, that makes it even more delicious......

Today mom would come home late because she had to do a course at work. I don’t mind that, because Dad than generally says that we are having dinner at the Burger King.

Well, I was right, so we went to the Burger King. I had a very big XXL hamburger with cheese and extra bacon on top of it.... Those ones are so big! Oooohhhh... and really very, very delicious man! Not so very healthy, but I cannot wait till we go and have dinner there again!

Go upstairs.... bye….. see you tomorrow!

To the ECL school!






















School in Haarlem...

This afternoon after school I have been with Mark to Haarlem and we followed a few lessons at the ECL school in Haarlem.

For 2 hours we got several lessons from several teachers. The nicest lesson was the one in the chemistry room, just making a big fire, which was pretty cool man!

The school itself I didn’t did particular like much. It is a very old school with old class rooms. No, it was a rather dull school…not inspiring at all…..

When we packed our things to go home, Mark found a pair of gloves in the pockets of his coat. He thought that they were his mothers but that was not so. There also happened to be an iPot in his pocket which wasn’t Mark’s. So he started to believe that it wasn’t his coat at all, it seemed like it and it was the same size but it wasn’t his coat.

Then we started to look for his coat but we couldn’t find it and almost all the coats were gone. Mark’s coat had to be taken by the owner of the iPot and the gloves! Mark's mom then took everything from the coat and left it and their name and phone number behind at the administration from the school. Perhaps the boy of his coat will show up some day at that school…..... After that we left the school and Mark in the other boy’s coat.

On 7 February we will go to the Kennermer lyceum in Overveen. Perhaps that school is nicer, I hope so.

After the ECL we left for the bowling, we had one hour school bowling training for the school bowling tournament that will be on the January 23rd ... It was nice just to throw a bowling ball after a day of hard work….....

Now I am tired and go upstairs..... bye…. see you tomorrow!

Great geography game!






So cool man that game!

This afternoon after school I went with Mark to his home to do our history homework over there.

When I got home afterwards Bo was very restless. He was running along the window back and forwards, was looking in a corner in the back of the garden and it looked as if he was crying all the time. We think that it’s because of the wind, it’s blowing very hard today. The wind makes a lot of noise and even whistles along the window, I think he disliked that very much.

Tonight I saw at the blog 2 lazy 2 blog a great geography game that Leon had put on it. That’s pretty cool man! Only it’s rather difficult, there are countries in that game I’ve never heard of. But I had nevertheless a 60% score and that’s not bad I think if you see what countries are participating. Thanks Leon, I will play it quite a lot!

Go upstairs... bye …see you tomorrow!

Back to normal.....












Back to normal…

The puzzle which I’m making…..... I got it from Mom this weekend!

Today I have been to school again. No Christmas trees and Christmas light anymore everything has been cleared and is back to normal again.

It has been a nice day at school. We had nice lessons and we will have a school bowling tournament pretty soon! Wednesday afternoon there will be our first training session at my bowling club, so cool man!

After school I have worked on my essay for awhile and afterwards I did a little piece of my new puzzle. Every time when come across it I’ll have to make a little piece of that puzzle.

Go now have to do something about that puzzle….bye…see you tomorrow!

Watching schools...









Hageveld in Heemstede....

This afternoon we went on a trip to examine several school, with the book which we got from school. Because this year is my last year at the primary school and so I have to search for a new school.

We have started in Heemstede at the Hageveld. That is the school which my cousin Michiel from Ruud and Femke is visiting. Man that is a beautiful school, so cool! It’s a very old building; it looks just like a castle. Femke would love it when I should go to that school where Michiel is.

After Hageveld we have been to the Coornhert lyceum in Haarlem. That was a very large and simple and dull school from the outside with a lot of extra classrooms in a temporary building.

Afterwards we went to the ECL in Haarlem which was a bit simple old building but was very easy to reach because there was a bus stop in front of the school.

The next school was the Kennermer lyceum in Overveen. Very beautiful building in a very nice area! There was a bus stop not very far from the school.

Then we continued our trip to the Sancta Maria in Haarlem. That was a very dull school from the outside in a very dull area.
Ppphhhff... it’s very difficulty, now we have to examine all of those schools once from the inside. Wednesday is the first open day of the ECL and will we have a look at that school then. I’m very excited to see all of those schools….exciting!

Now I go to bed, tomorrow is school again the holidays are over….bye ….see you tomorrow!

New screen!




















Our new screen.....

This morning when Mom was behind the computer the screen started to shiver. Last week it was already a couple of times entirely purple, so crazy man.

In the afternoon we went to the computer shop right here in our village to buy some cartridges for the printer and there we saw a nice offer of a computer screen. Man that was a 19 inch wide screen that was so cool man!

We went home after we bought the cartridges for the printer but we all kept speaking about the screen we saw. So later this afternoon we went back to the shop and finally Dad decided to buy the screen after all. You really don’t know what you see, that screen is so beautiful and it’s really a great watch!








Menu card from the neighbor dinner club…

Tonight we had the neighbor dinner club and it was Dad’s turn to cook. We had a delicious dinner! I specially loved the shrimp’s croquettes and the ice-cream dessert.

But now I go to bed…..bye… see you tomorrow!

Friday, January 05, 2007

To the phone shop...









My cell phone…

This afternoon we have been to Amstelveen to the orange shop. In my cell phone there is a photo camera and there must be a possibility to send these photos to the computer. But I never succeed in doing that. For this reason we returned to the orange shop this afternoon.

Well they fixed it really in a second. Within a couple of seconds they did start the mms function on their computer and they tested the photo function on my sell phone and it all worked, so I can send photo’s to my computer! Will try it out tomorrow and perhaps it’s possible to put some new photos on my blog!

Bye…see you tomorrow!

To Artis!












Here we are feeding the giraffe......

Today I went with mom and Mark to Artis. Man it was very nice to see all the animals again. .













Yindee the elephant was playing with her ball again.

The little giraffe Jeanette became already very big.. Also the little sea-lions weren’t little anymore…. ...












The attendant feeds the sea lions..

But Mark and I liked the new butterfly garden the most. That is a large inside garden where more than a thousand butterflies just fly around, so cool man. If you kept your body pretty still they came and sat down on your arm.












If you take a good look at this photo you can see there is a butterfly sitting on my arm….














This butterfly was so beautiful man....













And this one?

It was really pretty nice again in Artis..we had a wonderful time….. But now I go to bed….bye…see you tomorrow!

Rain all day long...





















Mark, just letting Bo out........

This morning I rung Mark to see if he would like to come along and have a rather long walk with Bo. He said he would come along and so we went to the Bataaf (cycle-racing track).

We just arrived at the Bataaf and then it suddenly started to rain, man so hard! When we returned home we all were soaking wet, so dirty man!

Then Mark and I started a game of monopoly. I got the newest version of monopoly for Christmas under the tree. That new version is no longer with money but with a real credit card and a special electronic banking machine, so cool man!
The game lasted long, we played almost the entire day. Only from time to time we went out with Bo very rapidly, because it rained almost the entire day, man what a weather it was today. It was a nice game, unfortunately I lost the game, Mark I’ll get you another day!

Go watch TV for awhile….. bye…. see you tomorrow!

Christmas food?
















Shrimps in a paste cup..........

Firstly this afternoon Dad and I cleared away yesterday’s fireworks trash in front of our door. Man what a mash those fireworks makes.

When we were ready we left for Purmerend to wish Granddad Frans a happy new year. It was very nice at Granddad’s, everywhere were candles burning and Granddad had a table full with all nice things things to eat, oliebollen, nuts, cheese stems and much, much more!

Also Bo liked it at Granddad’s. At first he had to take a look everywhere. Sometimes he also got a bit of a cheese stem or a nut. But then he became very very tired and fell asleep on Dad’s lap... We had to wake him up before we went home.

When we got home it was already dinner time. Mom made a nice dinner from al the leftovers from the holidays. Here above at the photograph you can see the shrimp’s cocktail in a paste cup…. that is so great man!

Go and watch TV now, there is a very nice Dutch film on …... something in the snow..... bye… see you tomorrow!

Fireworks!
















Dad had just lit a beautiful piece of fireworks….

Yesterday evening I could hardly wait till it was midnight. I watched the internetsite buienrader.nl the entire evening to see what the weather would be like at midnight, if it wouldremain dry. When it finally turned midnight it wasn’t raining and we drank a glass of Champagne and afterwards Dad and I went outside to let off the fireworks.

Unfortunately Bo was very very frightened and so Mom stayed inside with him to comfort him. He wanted to walk away and cried the entire time. He crawled with its head between mom’s legs and didn’t want to look outside at all….. Man it was so pitiful! Fortunately when it all was over he became quiet again…...

Here I am busy letting off the fireworks with Dad!

Man it was so cool to let the fireworks off. The only problem was that the fuse with which we let off the fireworks was finished much too soon, that was because of the wind which was still pretty strong so it went faster then it normally would do. Therefore we had to stop and we have not been able to finish all the fireworks, but that didn’t matter, I had a great time. Afterwards we went to the neighbors for awhile and it almost turned 2.00 AM before I went to bed….. It was a very cool evening!

See you later!
