April
2005 Journal
April
showers...that's for sure. The way it rained in the
beginning of this month...we should have some beautiful
flowers come May.
Anyway, no big plans for this month. A trip to Hershey
Park, yard and house work are about it.
Boy, nothing like last April!
That's okay, we'll do some other fun things.

The
Zembo Shrine Circus
April
2, 2005 |
Amanda, Mommy,
Daddy and me all went to the Farm Show Complex today to see the
circus. This was a much smaller scale circus than the other
one in Hershey but it was still fun for me. They had yummy
pretzels and cotton candy there too! I really liked the
motorcycle guys, the clowns, doggies doing tricks, and the elephants
were cool too. We had a nice day even though it was raining
like crazy outside!
**On that note Amanda thought it was pretty funny that the 4 tickets
she would get, put us in seats where the roof was leaking!! Heehee...we
managed to find some dry ones. Mommy said that the Farm Show
building is pretty old and hope they repair it soon!

Aunt
Atina & Nickoli Visit
April
2-3, 2005 |
|
Aunt Atina and
my cousin Nick came to visit. I was so excited to see him...I
haven't gotten to play with him since Thanksgiving. We had so
much fun running around the house playing cars and trucks. We
argued a little bit, almost like brothers, but nothing major that we
didn't resolve ourselves. I was sad for them to leave so early
on Sunday but they were on their way up to Grandma & Pa-pa's
house. I thought I should get to go too. I hope Nick
gets Pa-pa to warm up that tractor because I am sure we will be up
soon for a visit too!

A
Real Big Boy Bed For Me!
April
3, 2005 |
|
Today we went
shopping for a bed for my new room! Sorry the pics haven't
made there way online yet. We have gotten distracted with
other things and it's not completely finished yet. Just some
final touches. Anyway, we found one that we liked.
I liked it because the headboard is like a bookcase. I can put
my cars/trains there that I sleep with and my water. It isn't
really a captains bed but still has some drawers underneath. I
also got a dresser with a mirror. It looks very
"boyish". It is a light wood grain with blue
accents. The bed should be ready for us sometime in
May. I can't wait!

Springtime
In Hershey!
April
10, 2005 |
YAY!
Hershey Park is finally open! Only for a few days, but I have
been asking to all winter long! Mommy & me went for this
special event. I was sad that Daddy couldn't come with us but
he had to work :(. I couldn't wait to get there! We
(well, I) ran all the way to the entrance and Mommy bought us
wristbands and off we went to find the first ride! I rode all
kinds of things...the balloons, rockets that went up and down
(really high, I rode this with Mommy, it's a new ride), the cars
with horns (these are my favorite), the convoy trucks, the flying
falcons (this went high and fast too, also rode with Mommy), the
merry-go-round, trailblazer roller coaster (again, with Mommy),
turnpike cars, Kissing Tower, the monorail, the train....oh, I could
go on. We had so much fun! I got to eat the best pretzel
I've ever had. "This pretzel ROCKS Mom!" We
got some fun drinks with silly straws and "ice cream from the
future"...yummy! We stayed all day...I got some really
cool cars at the gift shop. We found three, one with a Hershey
bar, a Hershey kiss and a Reese Cup! Mommy got me a shirt
too...now, I look like a Hershey bar!
Mommy told Daddy when we got home how much fun we had, that we
really wished he could have been there. Mommy also told him
how good I was..."couldn't have been more perfect" is what
I heard her say! :)
I LOVE
HERSHEY PARK....WHEN ARE WE GOING BACK?

FunCare
Finally Moves Back Downstairs!
April
11, 2005 |
|
Finally!
The construction work is done and Mommy was able to move her room
back downstairs! She had to stay at work really late to get
things moved and in some kind of order. She is staying
combined with the other one-year old teacher because they liked how
things worked out with them and how they worked together. They
moved into a bigger room and their new name for the group is,
"The Monkeys". Heehee. We are all glad to back
together on one floor. Everyone thought I was pretty funny
when I saw the walls that were blocking the hallway come down and
said, "hey, we better hurry up and get out of here before it
floods again!"
Well, let's
hope that never EVER happens again! Ugh!

Robots
~ The Movie
April
15, 2005 |
|
Tonight we went
to see the movie Robots. I got some yummy nerds rope candy
(which I remembered getting the last time we were here and asked for
it right away!), popcorn and soda. I got a "big
drink" all for myself. I was excited to finally see this
picture. I told Mommy that I didn't like it, "it was
scary" but I really did. We talked about all the funny
and "scary" parts on the way home. I love going to
the movies...when is the next one for kids going to be theaters,
Mom?

Cache
Aid ~ A Geocaching Event
April
24, 2005 |
|
Today we went to
an "event"
cache in Hoffer Park, in Middletown. Although, the weather
was kind of cool and rainy, it didn't dampen anyone's spirits of
getting together for some caching fun. I loved it because of
the GIANT wooden playground, "Kids Kastle" and I played in
there the whole time. Mommy & Daddy had fun meeting new
and old caching friends and talking about great hides in the
area. Daddy had a good time getting compliments from his
puzzle cache, Llama
Corner and his newly invented Outdoor
Plumbing. We ate a lot of good food. We made
"dirt" dessert and there wasn't a drop left! I
can't wait to go on another one of these adventures...but hopefully,
the weather will be nicer.

Captain America
is one of our travel bugs. What's a travel bug? Well,
this link
explains it all. We launched him in June 2004 with the simple
goal of traveling the world. Well....he had made it a short
distance away to Delaware, Virginia and Maryland...getting lost for
a bit...and then found....now the brave young thing has made his way
to KUWAIT! We are anxious and "very" curious to see
if he makes it back in one piece! Good Luck Captain...safe
travels. Here is a link to that particular geocache. Ya

The
Lemmons Family Visits
April
29-30th, 2005 |
I am soo
excited....my buddy Sam (and the rest of his family) came to my
house for a quick visit! They were in town with Sam's
granddaddy for a Farmer's auction in Lancaster. Sam's
granddaddy is a farmer. Anyway, I was so excited to play with
my friend. We played "guns" (Sam has some really
cool ones and he brought them to share!) and trucks. We played
hard and all night long...we got to stay up way past our
bedtime! The grown-ups ate some wings and did some visiting or
something boring like that. We also had a good time letting
Sarah (aka..."the baby") chase us around the house.
Everyone thought it was pretty funny that Sam kept calling me
"Cole The Boy"...heehee. I was sad to see them leave
this morning but the Mommy's PROMISED we would get together again
real soon! There is a rumor that we may all try and go
camping!
