Lots of First - Time things

We got to eat this yummy Norway cake with my friends.  It was Chief Arvol Looking Horse's birthday and they sang in Norwegian for him.  That was AWESOME.

I get to go to the Rotary International Convention House of Friendship this week.
I am so pumped up!  I will play chess, sing at the piano, learn about other countries.  They always have so much fun and I can hardly wait!

I went on my very first field trip.  My school went to the Minnesota Zoo.  We road a bus together. The girls were singing and the boys behind them were telling them to stop singing.  But I liked the singing.  I think I sang too.  This is a picture of the shark that nearly scared me to death because I thought there were just little pretty fish in the tank.  AHHH.  

These are my friends.  We're making fish faces telling the shark to come get us.  Ha. Ha. 

And the coolest news of all.  I can ride my bike on just two wheels.  Good bye training wheels.  I can start and stop and not wipe out too much.  Not everyone wears a helmet in my neighborhood but I think it's a good choice.  I can't believe I can ride on two wheels now!  I keep practicing each night.  Too bad I can't take my bike with me to New Orleans. 

I weigh 48 pounds and I got a new pair of shoes.  Mom says I have man shoes now.  Size 1.  No little boy shoes any more.  I have man shoes.
