Donuts!

 This weekend, after starting school, we decided to make Nickel recipe donuts! There's still a lot of leftover dough that we can use later, but we ate all the fresh fried ones!

Nickel Visit!

 This weekend I went to Monterey to see the Nickels! We walked around the lakes by their hotel. I'm glad that I got to spend some time with Emma this summer. We didn't get to do any of our usual traveling this year, but we still had fun!

Heat Wave!

 This weekend it was too hot! There's only a few days a year that I wish we had air conditioning, but it seems those days are upon us. I only have one solution ...

Seeing Stephanie!

This weekend I got to see Aunt Stephanie! We got to talk outside the house. I'm glad that we get updates from family members sometimes. It's always fun to see some of our local friends as well!

Zoo Trip!

This weekend, we went to the SF Zoo! I had a lot of fun, even though there was no nature trail. Aside from the animals, there were a variety of distancing signs, and we liked the 'four lemurs' one best!

Backyard Visit 2!

This weekend I visited Aunt Stephanie and Uncle Christian again! I'm so glad that we get to see some family. I missed a lot of things I was looking forward to, but at least we can still meet up!

Lemon Bars!

This weekend I decided to make lemon bars! They're one of my favorite desserts. I'm happy with how they turned out! I think I want to make them again sometime.

Egg and a Half?

This weekend I did chicken care, and we found this fairy egg! It's so small! The inside was all white and didn't have a yolk, but made a nice addition to a fried egg.

Another Alley!

This weekend I went to another alley in our neighborhood! This one is around Lawton and 9th Avenue. After walking, we picked up Peasant Pies for lunch.

Telluride Celebration!

This weekend would have been when I went to Telluride Bluegrass, so in honor of our tradition we went to Martin and Dee's house for a Telluride gathering! I had a lot of fun, even if we didn't get to go to the festival.

Alley Walking!

This weekend I walked to two new alleys near Ortega street. After finding two by our house, we wondered whether there were more in our area, and it turns out there were some over there! One of them had a nice view of the bay over the rooftops.

Backyard Party!

This week was Aunt Stephanie's birthday, so we went up to Novato to celebrate with them! We did have to keep our distance, but I still had fun getting to see them!

Graduation!

Today I graduated from middle school! I watched the video live on a call with about half of the eighth graders, and we got to talk in the chat beforehand. During the video, I got lots of people texting me congratulations when I got four awards! I'm super proud of myself, and I think that's worth all the work I put in this school year.

Yearbook!

This weekend I got my yearbook! I was on the yearbook team, and I think overall it turned out pretty well. I did the student pages, and helped with the superlatives and the elective pages. In the end, I took on a lot more than I originally agreed to because of the lack of participation, but it was worth it.

Video Game Time!

Since the outside world is less than ideal, we've decided to take advantage of all our free time and play Dragon Quest XI! I think it's really fun, and it's also nice to be able to play with my family. Here's a few members of our party!
