Ride 'em Cowboy

A few weeks ago was Cowboy day at school so I dusted off my cowboy hat, pulled out my boots, and explained to the youngsters in my class that being a cowboy isn't simply riding off into the sunset. For full effect, I had planned to bring my six-shooters, but Mommy and Daddy didn't think it a good idea.

By the way, 'Giddy-up' doesn't translate into Spanish!


As you ponder the complexity of this picture, I recommend turning up the volume on your computer speakers and listening to the soundclip below...

I once caught a fish ttthhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiisssssssss big...

I just got home from my first viaje de pescato to Minnesota. While I didn't do a lot of actual fishing, I could certainly get used to the laid-back lifestyle of living on the lake!



Ready for inclement weather


Me, Mommy, Daddy, and a big lake..


¡la pesca me hace hambriento!

A Successful First Football Game

While I don't really get the whole "pigskin" analogy, I find watching football to be quite fun! I especially liked the fireworks that accompanied the celebration of another touchdown and the flag-ladies & drummers of the halftime show...




My favortie football snack, Leche!

Getting a Haricut Has Never Been so Fun!

A little learning is a dangerous thing.

Here is what I learned at school today...


Talk to the hand, Mommy!

Can't Wait Until I Turn 16!

I didn’t believe my parents when they told me that I couldn’t ride a bike without a helmet until I turn 16 so I did some research and it turns out they are right. According to the Georgia Bicycle Helmet Statute (Part 40-6-296 Lights and other equipment on bicycles, section E):


(e) (1) No person under the age of 16 years shall operate or be a passenger on a bicycle on a highway, bicycle path, or sidewalk under the jurisdiction or control of this state or any local political subdivision thereof without wearing a bicycle helmet.
For more information: Georgia Helmet Laws

So for now (and for the next 15 years), I guess I will sport a helmet while on wheels. Here are some pictures of my new Donald Duck Helmet!



My New Helmet!


My head definitely has some room to grow in this thing!

Missing Mommy Found!

I have instructed Daddy to take down the Missing Posters - as my mommy has been found. After several weeks of being missing, she has returned and aside from a weird curry smell, she was found in good health. We are very happy to have her home, almost as happy as she seems to be about being back home. She came home bearing gifts. Below are the pictures of my very beautiful Indian clothes that she curried, oops, I mean carried back with her.

Amo a mi primo!


Now, if I only spoke Hindi...
Perhaps, I will learn that after I teach my parents spanish!
