Katie's Birthday

Yesterday at grandma's we celebrated Katie's birthday. We had cake and ice cream and played "Even Elephants Forget". It was fun! We should do a production of Lonely Goatherd. I can't yodel very high though!

Bob Kramer's Marionettes

Yesterday mom surprised us by bringing us to Bob Kramer's Marionettes, a puppet theater right next to S.L.U. It was awesome! First a nice guy named Doug brought us in and showed us how to make puppets. First, you use clay, then slastic, and then use plastic wood, and then wood and paint and clothes for the body. After that we learned the history of puppets and all the different kinds. Then, the puppet show. A few more people came and made a show with marionettes. They tapped, sang and danced. It was really funny. Then we bought two marionettes, a dog and dragon. For lunch we went to the Fountain on Locust. I had red onion soup and then orange sherbet. It was delicious! Then we went home. We had a great time!

JA Biztown

Today I went to a place called JA Biztown. We got to have jobs and earn a paycheck to buy things. I was mayor. It was awesome! While the family was at Jefferson City I gave Uncle John his Genius Cake. It was pure genius-as for Uncle John.
