I may be two years younger than Drew, but I sure do like to boss him around. Here’s me making sure he’s watering in the right places with his bubble machine. I’m a good supervisor! By the way, do you like my dress?

Aunt Colleen came over for a camp out in the backyard last night! It was awesome…we set up tents and slept outside in sleeping bags! We also had a fire for s’mores (see below). I’ve been looking forward to camping all week and I wasn’t disappointed. We had two tents and three people sleeping outside (mom and Page slept inside) – Aunt Colleen, dad and I slept outside. I was insistent that I get to sleep with Aunt Colleen – even when dad came in the tent to kiss me goodnight, I said “can you sleep in your tent, and Aunt Colleen will sleep in my tent?” I slept all the way through the night until the birds woke me up around 7:00 and we came inside to make pancakes.

We had a s’mores party last night in the backyard. It was sooooo much fun, and a lot of my friends from the neighborhood came to roast marshmallows in our backyard fireplace and play in the tents that we set up for my camp out (more on that later). We didn’t get pictures of everyone…too many marshmallows to eat, but it sure was fun.

Dad set up a movie projector in our room to watch wall-sized cartoons! It was awesome. I called it a machine that does magic.

Dad and I went on a walk this afternoon and ran into Lizzy. We hung out for a bit and she pushed me on her truck. Dad also says I’m cute in my hat, even if I am pigging out on a cracker.

Mom is teaching me how to write. I will ask her how to spell a word, she writes it, and then I write it under her. I’m getting pretty good!

Mom decided today she needed to get out (Paige has been very irritable-she has 4 molars coming in and can be a little challenging:>). So we went to one of our favorite spots…San Francisco! We went to the SF Bay Aquarium…we have never been there before. It was so cool. One whole floor was walking through tunnels of fish and water above you (it reminded us of the shark tunnels we went in at Sea World). Then we had to go and see the Sea Lions…Paige’s favorite! They were barking up storm! It was a little windy but a nice clear sunny day in SF! Also everytime I am there I point out the Bay Bridge, the Golden Gate Bridge and Coit Tower.

Paige would scream at the Sea Lions…but I don’t think they heard her with all their barking:>

Yes that is me trying to touch a tiger shark!!!

We hope you have a great and special day today! We love you and send you birthday wishes!
-Drew and Paige
