The end to a busy week!

My last night at the Mercer's home was a great one!  I got to go trick or treating with Haydn and her brother, Jake.  We got so much candy!

Thanks for a great week, Haydn!  Now I'm off to my next adventure!

Horseback riding with Haydn!

Tuesdays are busy days at Haydn's house.  As soon as Haydn got home from school, we had to do her chores.  Haydn has to feed her 2 dogs and cat so I helped her out.  She let me scoop the food out of the bin!

Next, it was time to eat a small meal and head to the horse farm for her horseback riding lesson.  It was so much fun seeing all the horses there.  Haydn's horse, Willow, is nice but she is so much bigger than I am!

After 2 hours at the barn, we were tired!  We headed back to Haydn's house for dinner, a shower and bed!  Haydn read me a bedtime story all about horses.  Now it's time to drift off to sleep!

Girl Scout outing with Haydn and friends!

On Saturday, Haydn and I packed our bags and headed to a local park for a Girl Scout outing called WOW! (Wonders of Water).  We learned so much about water and the different ways people use water.  Did you know, in other countries, water is not available to some people?  We tried to come up with ways how we could help those people get water.  The girls had some really good ideas!  Along our adventure, we ran into some friends from our class.  It was great to see some familiar faces!

At home with the Mercers!

Once Haydn and I got off the bus on Friday after school, we were excited to get our weekend started! We ran inside her house, grabbed a snack, then headed outside to enjoy the warm Autumn day.  We had so much fun playing with all of the kids in her neighborhood.  My favorite thing was playing on the swings!

Short but Busy Week

Visiting with the Jenkins house was a lot of fun! The weekend started out with "Friday Family Movie Night" Where I got a turn to spend time with James' sisters Maggie and Anna.

On Saturday, James built a Rain Gutter Regatta boat for Cub Scouts. I got to put on some special coating that makes the boat glide better in the water. I hope this boat will be fast!

While James was at school, his mom took me to "The Shoe" at Ohio State University. There was a big game coming up against Penn State University and the campus was busy. It was also huge!

I ended up having a great time at the Jenkins' house. Time for the next family!

Even though it was getting late, I begged Madelyn for one more bedtime story.  I love snuggling in bed and reading to help me wind down after a big day.  I'm also learning about Thanksgiving which I think is sometime next month? I'm excited to celebrate it and eat lots of food. I wonder if there will be any bamboo?

Getting close to the end of the story.  I keep waiting to see if there will be any pandas?????

Piano Lessons for Bamboo

Today I got to play on something that matches my beautiful black and white fur coloring.  The PIANO!  I was excited to give it a try, but a little nervous too.  Madelyn helped to show me how to hold my hands and gave me the confidence to go for it!

Practicing my scales.

The piano isn't as easy as it looks.  Maybe I will try again tomorrow and see if I can play Mary Had a Little Lamb.  Of course, Maddy will need to give me a LOT of help!

Still trying to remember where Middle C is!

Bamboo at the Wedding

On Saturday morning, my new friend Madelyn dressed me up and I was so excited to attend a wedding for one of their family friends.  Here I am waiting to see the bride with Madelyn and her Nana.

I was a little sneaky to capture this selfie with the bride and groom in the background.  Look closely and you can see them exchanging their vows!

Do you recognize me? They had a photo-booth at the wedding reception and I think I created an amazing disguise.
What a fun day this was.

Kickin' It!

Hudson took me to his game on my last with he and his family.   After showing me how to kick, trap and pass it was time to watch Hudson in action.  The 'Lightning'  were awesome!  In fact, they won the game and Hudson kicked in his first goal!
