I have to give a special shout out to Kim! She is one of my all time favorite people. She works with my Dad and her little boy Nathan goes to preschool with me. Whenever I see Kim I just HAVE to scream and give her a big hug. Dad told Kim she can't babysit me though because she is such a push over!! Don't know what the problem is with that!

Kim and Me
I have to give a special shout out to Kim! She is one of my all time favorite people. She works with my Dad and her little boy Nathan goes to preschool with me. Whenever I see Kim I just HAVE to scream and give her a big hug. Dad told Kim she can't babysit me though because she is such a push over!! Don't know what the problem is with that!
City Park Rides with My Classmates
In our town we have one of the best parks of all times...City Park. Besides having a zoo, it also has the rides. Each evening during the summer, the rides are opened and cost only 25 cents. My preschool celebrated the opening by getting together with our moms and dads at the rides. I love the rides that go around and around...except for the Merry Go Round...up/down/around/around...now that's a bit much!
Fun Times with Family!
Memorial Day weekend meant Mom and I hit the rode again. We drove over 650 miles to get to Grandma and Grandpa's to camp. I really wished we lived alot closer to my Grandma and Grandpa Parke, my cousins and aunts and uncles. They are the most awesome, loving and fun people ever. My cousins make sure I get to do all of the fun things they do. They are always thinking of ways for me to do things...and if it is to hard - they find a way to help me. We played a softball game, had a water fight, played bean bag, rode the mule, rode my trike, roasted marshmallows, went skateboarding and went to the park...and that's not all! I was so tired from the weekend that I took a two hour nap in the car ride home. If you know me...you KNOW that never happens!
My New Trike
I love my new trike! Last year I learned to ride a bike with training wheels but I still have to have someone right beside me in case I take a corner to sharp. With my trike, I can feel the wind in my curls without having Mom breathing down my neck! And...Mom said it can be adjusted so I'll be able to use it for a long time. The wheels are big so it even goes well on the dirt. The best thing about it is that I can give people rides...I even give Daddy rides down the sidewalk in front of our house! My preschool has these same trikes so I've had alot of time to practice riding. It is my all time favorite thing to do when we go outside on the playground. There is a track that circles all around the playground so I go around and around and around...then I go around again! Check out me giving my cousin Alyssa a ride!
Happy Graduation McKenzie!
My first big trip, Mom and I journeyed to Nebraska for my cousin Mikenzie's high school graduation. While there we got to watch her and Max in their track meet. I did a great job cheering for them to run. Also got to eat one of my favorite foods...a hotdog. I've gotten so good at eating hotdogs that Mom doesn't need to cut it up in small pieces...I get to hold it all by myself! After graduation ceremony, Lauren taught me how to spin and twirl when I dance. I'll share more about that later when Mom gets a video tape...words just can't describe it!
Catching Up...
Whew...Mom really is behind on helping me share with you my joyful journey! Finally decided enough is enough...no excuses Mom...fun and exciting things have been happening and I want to share with my family and friend! Mom and I have been doing ALOT of driving over the past month. We've driven over 3,000 miles! Talk about a journey! As long as I had a full belly and some toys...life on the road was good..for both Mom and me. But if one of those things wasn't in place...I made sure Mom knew about it!

Angelman Syndrome Walk-A-Thon
Peanut's Peeps Team had a great time at the 2008 Walk-A-Thon. This was my fourth year participating in the walk and each year it gets bigger and bigger. There were over 340 people walking....over 100 more people than last year. We had beautiful weather and I had tons of fun with my peeps! Aunt Michelle and Mikenzie drove over 10 hours to come walk with us. Debie and her family have been at every walk with us...including this year. Makenzie and Nathan, my friends from preschool, brought their moms and dads. James even came to walk with us! We had our own little tricycle gang that rode the entire 1.3 miles with a little help from all the big people walking. Thank you to everyone who came to walk with me. Also, a huge thank you to everyone who made a donation. Dad, Mom and I are so blessed to have you all in our lives. You can check out the video Mom made to see pictures of the Peanut's Peeps Team.
