Happy 10th Birthday to Luey!!

So we had a little canine style party for our beloved Luey. I picked out the cake and Daddy picked up the "Frosty Paws" ice cream. I am so happy DiDi is here to celebrate with us too. Luey was most excited about his new heated blanket and I was most excited he & KoKo was willing to wear the party hats...LOL! Check out KoKo...she was into the treats(as usual) and most of her pics have her tongue showing as she licks her lips.

A REALLY fun place to play!!

Mommy's new "mommy group" let her in on a few secrets about fun places to go so today we ventured out to the first one on the list...what a hit it was. This place is close by in Charlotte, NC and I feel sure we will go back. Me and Mommy played in the water from 11-3...man do I love having Fridays off from school.

My new hockey place...

So I was super excited to try out a new hockey program...I LOVED IT!! I will be playing on Monday nights from 6:30-7:30pm and I qualified as a "4 star". I had to show up yesterday and be evaluated(whatever that means). I got dressed and was tossed out in the rink with a bunch of guys and was told by Coach Kyle to "show him what I got". He was apparently thinking I would qualify as a "star 2 or 3" given my age but he said I was a "4 star"(out of 5) no doubt!! My first big practice is tonight but I enjoyed playing in the "pick-up" rink yesterday for almost 2 hours. Come check me out, I play at a place called http://www.xicenter.com/...the official training place for the Charlotte Checkers.

beware of the ninjas!!

Not sure if anyone else watches the Lego ninja show that just premiered last week but I LOVE IT!! By the way, my ninja name is "Zane"...not insane like Mommy says in the video below!

I love living closer to TN!!!

Living closer to Tennessee has so many benefits when it comes to seeing many friends and family more often. This past weekend is a perfect example of awesomeness!! Bevie and Dave came to our house...they live in Knoxville so they are even closer than everyone that lives in Chattanooga!! We had so much fun playing, showing off my new Christmas stuff and just hanging out. Check out the cool Lego Star Wars set AND a Star Wars lunchbox with sandwich cutters. I have had spaceship sandwiches for days!!!

random pics Mommy took on a beautiful day in December

Mommy and me had a fun day going to the movies, shopping and having lunch one day in Charlotte...surprisingly(NOT) she had her camera!!

back to some Christmas fun!!

I know, I know it is almost mid January but it is busy around here. Anyway, we had a wonderful time in Tennessee and much of my time was spent with my cousin Katelyn...SO MUCH FUN!!!!! On Thursday the 29th everyone gathered at Nana's house for dinner, gifts and alot of playing. I got to spend time with my cousins, my Uncle "Jovas"...Joseph, Mamaw, James, Nana and the list goes on. Check out the fun pics.

finally ready to show off my awesome new bedroom!!

Man have I come a long way from when we first got here...my room went from pink to blue(thanks Mommy), I no longer sleep in a toddler bed(I will miss my race car bed), and I even have my own desk!! We picked up my new bookcase yesterday and now I just need my chair to sit at my desk. Mommy was okay with star wars sheets for the bottom bed but only my bed on top could be completely decked out in Star Wars...that makes my bed the coolest on the top!!

Finally...Christmas in TN(part 1)

a few days after Christmas we made our short trip from SC to TN to see all the family. 1st we celebrated with Poppy, Gigi, my Aunt Carrie and Uncle Joey as well as all my cousins...Jordan, Cara, Devin, Logan, and Bailey. We had so much fun!! I loved playing with Cara's pink Barbie car and she was up for playing a little game of Light saber with me. Now that we live closer I hope to see everyone alot more!!

YELLOW BELT!!!!!!

So I received my yellow belt in Tae Kwon Do yesterday and I was so excited. It was even more special cause Daddy was off and was able to be there too!! Now to start working for my tips and then my green belt!
