Ba-Chan came over to play Wii with me. First Ba-Chan made a Mii. Then we all did our Wii Fitness test for an hour. It was a lot of fun. I like doing my Wii exercises. Ba-Chan is staying for the Thanksgiveing weekend. I can’t wait to have terkey with stuffing, potatos, and pumpkin pie. I am haveing a great time visiting Ba-Chan.

Last night I watched disk one of SpiderMan. At the begining of SpiderMan it said the movie was in color. I saw the words to the SpiderMan song on DVD. I sang along with the song as it played. It was fun. I saw this movie twice. When the movie was over I took a bath and got ready for bed. Tonight I’m going to watch disk two of SpiderMan on TV.

I’ll clap to the beat of the credit music. After sapper I would like to watch the video Totoro because I like to see the pictures. They are colorfull and interesting. I like to go to bed later on Friday nights. The I sleep in on Saturday morning.

I like to go to doggy class with Photon. I was listening to mack the nife on the iPod. When we got there they played musical chairs. Then they played some doggy games. Daddy’s back was herting because Daddy can’t lift me. I went back into the car to go back home. We got home at eight o’clock. Tonight I’m going to watch Totoro again.

Saturday mornings are great for going to Grandma and Grandpa’s house. I like to go to other places too. I like to go to Maghin and Austain’s house. On Saturday mornings I like to have something to eat. My favorite restront is Il Fornello. I like to eat two pieces of pizza.
I like to go to out with my mom and dad and have fun. Saturday mornings are great!

(An aside about pizza at Il Fornello: The whole family had had mild stomach bugs the last couple of weeks of summer. (Yes, that’s foreshadowing.) On Sunday the 2nd we went to Fornello for dinner to celebrate the end of summer. Jon wolfed his usual adult-size pizza with his usual satisfied gusto; then started looking sick, and upchucked the entire meal all over his plate. Props to Fornello Danforth’s staff for their quick reactions. Poor Jon!)

Photon is not aloud in zoos. She’s not aloud in movie theatres. She’s not aloud in Sunny View school. She’s only aloud in doggy class. I love Photon. As we get ready for doggy class I’m going to watch the brand new Local Forecast that I taped Tonight.
