Halloween '14

He's Ezra from Star Wars Rebels

Game 7

Let's Go Royals! Tonight's final World Series game will be super-exciting! Mike Moustakas has already blasted 5 home runs on his way to a record-setting postseason!   We're looking forward to seeing at least one more  home run celebratory fist-smash from #8 !!! DJ witnessed Moose hit 2 home runs in a game earlier this year in Chicago!  Win or lose, it's been a fun season with great memories!

A Springtime Re-Visit

Our re-blooming iris has returned with some awesomely-bright color!

Some Light Reading

He's on the 3rd book of the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series.

Movie Night

Davis thought the part about the birds & the frosting was too funny.

Classroom Report

DJ says he really enjoys presenting his ideas & stories in class.

#countrybreakfast

It's one of the catchiest nicknames for a baseball player. And, last night, it was a worldwide  trending hashtag. #16 Billy Butler was the difference-maker in a must-win for KC.  [photo: KC Star]   We're getting game-ready for Friday! Let's Go Royals!

#TakeTheCrown

Raider of the Last Carton

Listen Closely

for a distant thundering charge... #8 is leading the way! Davis' favorite Royal!

Nature Center

It's our final visit of the year! 2014 featured four awesomely-fun visits! New stuff inside! New stuff outside! In fact, we spent most of our visit outside. Perfect trail-walking weather! Bright cloudless skies! The Janet Huckabee River Valley Nature Center is fun inside & out! There's even more new stuff under construction! Everything should be ready by 2015! The frozen bobcat won't see DJ again -until he's  9 years-old !

Road Crossing

One of the more familiar road crossing photos is going to auction. A set of original Abbey Road album cover photos is expected to sell for over $100,000.   DJ will trade a signed copy of his road crossing photo for a Lego mini-figure mystery pack.

Ears Lowered:

Looking good, DJ!

Gold Glove Effort

from Mike Moustakas in Game 3 of the ALCS! Moose knows something about Gold Gloves : As a Northwest Arkansas Natural , Mike won the award for best fielder at his position in the Texas League . Now, he's showing-off the leather in the Show with the Kansas City Royals !  Moustakas ' glove & bat have the Royals primed for the World Series ! Photo with a  Gold Glove Trophy! (earlier this season) (Davis says it's very heavy)

Eyeball Check

DJ had an overall good check-up. He was a good listener & gave clear, polite responses. He's fascinated with all the neat gizmos, too. DJ ranks the eye doctor very high on his 'doesn't really mind' list because of the near-zero chance of a needle-type injection. Although, he can imagine there may be a need for one- in an extreme situation (he didn't feel comfortable talking about what he thought that situation might be- and was not going to ask the eye doctor).

Fearless

Crawfish? Crayfish? Crawdad? Mudbug? Tasty.

Some Sunshine

-before the rain!

New Ones!

It's always exciting when a new series of Lego mini-figures is released!
