Christmas at the Zoo!

Over the weekend, we went to the zoo.  It was a lot of fun! The tigers were really fun because they were roaming around and getting close up to the glass.  I also had some hot chocolate.  Too bad the train tickets were really expensive.  So we walked around instead.  We were there for hours so here are some pictures.

French Lick Splash Adventure!

On Saturday November 12 we went to Big Splash Adventure.  It was super cool!  It had an indoor water park.  There were five slides and a water basketball court.  It also had monkey bars.  Our room number was 1528.  Our room had two bunk beds.  It was located on top of a really big hill.  There's this one road that had a lot of hills on it on the way to French Lick.  It was super fun!  We got to do the water park three times before we had to go home.

After we left, we went on that super cool, windy road again.  Mom got sick because it was so windy.  It was two and a half hours away from our house.  I mostly played my DSi on the way there and back.  I also listened to my iPod.  We got home around 4:30 and watched some NFL football. 

I had a great, awesome weekend!!!!

My last fall season soccer game!

My last soccer game was Nov. 5, 2011. The bad news is that we lost 8-1 against the Indy Burn. I played really hard and did my best.  Here are some pictures of the game.







Billy's perspective:  This game was one of Blake's toughest of the season.  He played a team a year older and, at times for most of his teammates, a head taller.  These kids were giants compared to our U9 kids!  However, Blake stepped up to the challenge.  I have seen Blake perform some magic with his def touches and brilliants shots on goals but in this game, he was a field general.  He motivated his friends to play harder, he moved players in position, and he was aggressive attacking the ball.

The highlight for me was towards the end of the game.  Blake was playing as the lone forward up front.  The ball was in the defensive half of the field and was kicked across the goal to the corner flag.  Blake noticed that his team was grouped together on the opposite side and he was, in fact, the closest to the ball.  He sprinted from the offensive half back to the corner flag to gather the ball.  By that time, the opposing players were closing in on the ball and Blake.  He then took the ball around defenders leaving them in his dust on a Giggs-like run up the sideline towards the goal of the other team.  His cross unfortunately was blocked which resulted in a corner.  The work rate of this one play was so impressive simply because Blake never gave up!

The whistle blew for the end of the game shortly after the corner.  Despite his team being down and the end of the game coming so fast as to put any come back hopes to rest, Blake ran his legs off, showing off his mutant football super hero skills!

Blake watching you play football the way you do is one of my most favorite things!  You love to play and we all love to watch that enthusiasm.  Well done, Blake!

My Killer Halloween

For my Halloween I was a zombie. I got 312 pieces of candy. It was because I used a giant pillowcase to carry my candy.  I went to my friend Drew's neighborhood.  Drew was a dead football player. I also  went trick-or-treating with my friend Kyle who was a dead baseball player. Drew's neighborhood is super big. There's like 300 houses in there. But we banged out all of them. My Halloween was awesome!!!! When I got home I did my optional Halloween homework.  It was fun.



  So there's my Halloween!!!

My Florida Vacation!

I went to Tampa, Florida for my awesome fall break! The reason I went there was because my dad (who is in the Army.) moved there from the awesome state of Indiana. The first day I arrived in Tampa we went to Dick's to get the awesome Zigs. Then we went home to see my stepmother Pam.

The next day we went to Busch Gardens... where we had lots of fun.

The next day we went to a beach called Appollo Beach...where we had lots of fun! Then we had to leave after a couple of  hours. After we left dad and I went to get our haircut. When we came home, we had dinner. After dinner we watched the baseball world series between the Texas Rangers & the St. Louis Cardinals.

The day after that was Saturday. The first thing we did was packed up the car and started driving to Crystal Creek where you can swim with manatees. I touched one with my foot can you believe it? After that Dad & I went to see Tampa Bay Lightning  VS. the Winnipeg Jets. The Lightning won 1-0.

The next day was really sad. I had to go back home. So we went to the airport and I left. I was so sad. But the good thing is I get to see him again on Christmas break!
