Dinner at Kobe's

On Saturday night my dad took my mom and I to Kobe's a Japanese Steakhouse. I really enjoyed my meal, and it was very entertaining! The chef comes to your table, and cooks your meal right in front of you on a grill that is built into your table. The food was delicious, my mom and I both got jumbo sea scallops and my dad ordered tuna. I had a blast!

Dinner at Hoggy's

On Friday night my mom, dad and I went to dinner at Hoggy's BBQ. My mom and I ordered pulled pork, but my dad on the otherhand ordered a 1/2 rack of ribs and a 1/2 of chicken. I couldn't believe my eyes when his dinner came out, so all weekend he has been joking with me that we can snack on leftover chicken!

Who Dung It?

Can you guess which animal in the Columbus Zoo this dung belongs to? Vote to the right hand side of my blog if you think you know or you want to make a wild guess, the answer will be posted at the deadline of the poll with a photo of the animal.

The Columbus Zoo!

I had a great time exploring the Columbus Zoo! There were so many animals to see, and so much information to learn. I really like the zoo, especially because there were animals out that you could touch and hold, and there were many workers around the zoo who could tell you anything you wanted to know about an animal. Here are some pictures of some of the animals at the Columbus Zoo!

My Trip to Columbus!

This weekend my mom and I went to Columbus to visit my dad since he has been down here for about a week for business. On Friday evening when we arrived, we went to Hoggy's BBQ for dinner and then to Graeters for ice cream. On Saturday we went to the Columbus Zoo and to the Easton outdoor shopping center. It has been a great weekend, I have learned so much and I have had a blast!
The city of Columbus!

Memorial Day Camping Trip!

Over Memorial Day weekend my family and I went on a camping trip Pokagon State Park in Indiana. My sister Chelsea and I both were able to bring a friend, so I brought my best friend Emily. Over the weekend we rode our bikes through the trails, played on the playground, went to the beach, fell asleep on the beach and got sun burnt, sat by the campfire, played cards, played track ball, and got attacked by bugs, mosquitoes to be exact! Here are some of the pictures Emily and I took on our camping trip! Overall we had a blast and I can't wait to go back again next year!






Chillin' at the beach!

Fun With Slushies!

Before going on our Memorial Day camping trip, my sister took my friend Emily and I to the gas station to buy a couple slushies... they were refreshing and delicious!

Softball update!


Our softball team had a game yesterday, Thursday against two different teams. We played a double header and we won both games, the story of the second game is kind of funny, but we ended up forfeiting the game due to bad sportsmanship of the opposing teams coach. All in all our team played very good, we had only one pitcher Haley who did phenominal and our catcher Courtney did absolutely amazing, she made some great stops!

Tsar Nicholas II children's remains found


Analysis of DNA and bones showed that Crown Prince Alexei and his youngest sister, Maria, were among 11 people, including the Tsar, his family and aides, executed by Bolsheviks in 1918.
In 1991 remains of nine of the victims were found, leading to rumours that the children had escaped the purge.
However, the tests by American scientists showed that the two children were among those killed.
