Hedy Lamarr, Inventor

For my inventor presentation at school today, I was Hedy Lamarr, movie star and inventor of Spread Spectrum Technology (used in WiFi).

Another Weekend in Support of Humanity

San Francisco is not giving up on defending peoples' rights and neither am I. Plus, this was at the beach. Have I made it clear that I like sand?

Mom and I are in the lower left corner of the R.

Bottle Flip Game

At the Jefferson dance and game night on Friday, Mom & Dad ran a bottle flip game. Brandon was really good, and had the record score of 10 points. I had more fun on the dance floor, but I helped run the game a little bit, too.

Relaxing at the Cozy Cottage

This weekend, Mimi and Papi soaked up the Sonoma sunshine while I played ukulele. I'm getting pretty good at making up my own songs!

Women's March

Max and I marched for what we believe in, along with 100,000 other people in San Francisco.

That's us on the far left, near the building with pink archways.

New Sweater

Stephanie gave me this new sweater when I went to see her in Novato. The pin that I'm wearing is from the Nickels. My sweater is very soft, so people keep petting me.

On a Mission

I'm building a model of Mission San Luis Obispo de Tolosa for school. It has real tiny bells and grape arbors.

Dragon Experts

On our road trip with Nonie and Doc, Emma and I rode the dragon boat at Santa Monica Pier about 10 times! Then we went to lunch at Bubba Gump's. After lunch, we rode it 6 more times.

Christmas Joys

I got so many great gifts for Christmas, I could barely decide what to do first. Legos and my new iPod are a great combination!

Symphonic Snowman

Uncle Christian and Aunt Stephanie took me to the San Francisco Symphony's holiday show. The movie "The Snowman" was shown on a big screen while they played the music live. Plus, there was a hot chocolate bar!

Christmas Tree Shopping

Every year, we try to pick out a tree that's about as tall as I am.

Supergirls on the Run

Last weekend was our Girls on the Run 5K through Golden Gate Park. I flew through the course in 36 minutes with my running buddy, Lauren!

Don't bother me, I'm solving puzzles

No blog post this week – I'm too busy playing Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box on Dad's Nintendo DS.

Beach Buddies

I'm so thankful that Emma is my cousin, and that I'm in San Diego for a visit! Both of our home towns have an Ocean Beach that's perfect at sunset.

Sewing Class

I'm really enjoying my sewing class after school. As a fifth grader, I get to help the younger kids use the sewing machine. I'm planning my own sewing projects at home, too.
