Settlers of Catan!

 This weekend I learned how to play Settlers of Catan with my family! It took a while to figure out how to set it up, but I had fun establishing a sheep farm!

Election Results!

 This weekend we finally got the results of the presidential election! It was really inspiring to see the speeches that were made and how the crowd was able to stay enthusiastic and energetic despite mask protocols.

Halloween Hit And Run!

 This weekend I went door to door doing reverse trick-or-treating! I didn't have a full costume, but I had a lot of fun dropping off candy in my blue wig! It's a little odd with my eyebrows ...

Welcome Back, Fog!

 This weekend I was excited to see my old friend back in our neighborhood! Fall is my favorite season, and it's exciting to see that it still has all the usual charm.

Ice Cream!

 This weekend I went out on a trip to get ice cream from Hometown Creamery! They have some of my favorite flavors, including my all time favorite, an earl grey ice cream. The ginger pear sorbet did not disappoint!

(Different) Escape Room!

 This weekend I went to Emeryville to play at Trivium Games! I thought the room was really interesting, and I am super glad that we went to play it.

Escape Room Test!

 This weekend I tested an escape room plan in my driveway! I got my best friend Alessandra to help with the test, and we had a lot of fun. Afterwards we got bubble tea. It's nice to see my friends!

Beach Walk!

 This weekend I walked to Ocean Beach with my dad! It was a long way to walk, but it was fun. I hadn't realized how much I missed the water and sand.

Bob's Birthday Celebration!

This weekend I celebrated Uncle Bob's birthday with some of the other Nickels! It was nice to hear from them, especially since I don't see most of them very often in real life. I hope we can have more small family gatherings in the future!

Stardew Memories!

 This weekend I spent lots of time inside playing video games! In addition to playing the new Animal Crossing with my mom, I've also started playing Stardew Valley again, and it's still super fun!

City Walk!

 This weekend I went to the Hidden Garden Steps and checked on my geocache! I also got to walk around the city a little bit. It was still pretty smoky, but hopefully it's getting better.

Birthday Celebration!

 This week I turned 14! I got to celebrate at home, and even though I couldn't have a party, my friend Jeff still delivered me a bubble tea drink in the morning! I got to have a carrot cake from Sweet Things!

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 ...
