This was a GREAT DAY for my family.

A sign I am growing up:  Mommy and I were in the car, when she remembered something she needed, so she went back inside.  Her phone rang, so I unbuckled my car seat and answered the phone.  It was Daddy wanting to talk to Mommy, so I opened the car door and met Mommy at the house door to tell her she had a phone call.  Nope, not a toddler any more.  I can do most anything.

Daddy and Mimz went shopping for Daddy a different truck.  He bought a silver 2014 model truck.  (4000 miles on it.)   We are on cloud nine.

Mommy, Grandma, and Kristan went to a three hour cooking class where they each made 9 crock-pot meals.  They assembled each meal in a large zip-lock bag, ready to be frozen and then cooked. They all enjoyed it, but it was hard for all three of them to stand in one place for that long.

I spent part of the day at Barbara's.  GGM, GGF, Barbara, and I played outside most of the day.

 As I have said before we enjoy playing ball...

...if the ball gets away from us, I always volunteer to go after it.  I am the fastest runner on our team.

 Even when we need to rest, we still keep playing.  Barbara pulled her car outside so we would have more space in the garage.

I can still fit on and ride my plasma toy, a gift from Aunt Lisa and her family.

These are all of my toys that stay in the garage.  It is good we have a three-car garage to allow us to have room for the car and too play.

 After a rest, we decided it was time to work, so we got my wagon outside...

.. and filled a bucket with some of Mr. Brad's dirt.

We pulled it back home, dumped the dirt and spread it out in a low area.

I inspected our work.

Grandma took me on a wagon ride.  I sure am a lucky boy.

Our neighborhood had a  big garage sale this morning.  Barbara, GGM, and GGF hit them all.  They bought me a puzzle, car track toy.  I enjoyed working the puzzle and playing with the wind-up toy.

Barbara made us lay down to rest, but that didn't last long.  I was too revved up waiting for 3:45pm to get here.  That was the time we were leaving to go to my TOT performance at Trinity Lutheran Church.   I got up and asked GGF if he would change the TV channel to Gunsmoke.  Of course, he did.

We checked in for my TOT performance, and stopped to take my picture.  When it was time, I ran to get a spot on the front row right in front of my fan club: Mommy, Daddy, Mimz, Grandma, PaPa, GGM, GGF, and Barbara.

We showed off the skills we have learned this year.  My ball handling skills have greatly improved over this past 9 months, partially due to my TOT class.  (some video will be added, but I won't promise when.)

This trophy is what I have worked so hard to earn.  It is my first trophy.

 Daddy came to get me when the performance was over.

We were a happy dad and son.
(add trophy picture.)

We hurried to Mimz home, to change into nice clothes.  I got to wear the new man's suit Mimz had bought me.  Today would have been Pops 66th birthday. We went to the Redfish Seafood  Grill to celebrate:  Mimz, Daddy, Mommy, Uncle Scott, Aunt Jill, Morgan, Aunt Kathy and Uncle Wendell.  We had a great time.

I got to spend the night at Mimz' home.
