Grandma and Grandpa Poole left today at about 6:00. They came on Thursday so it was a lot longer than their last visit when they stayed only one day.
I have been organizing my room more although I'm not done yet. I finally have my desk and my dresser so now I can unpack more boxes.
I have two windows in my room so when I open my blinds it's really bright. My desk is in front of one of my windows so it is my favorite place to do school.
Here is a video that someone emailed mom.

I don't know where mom got it but it is hilarious!

Birds of Prey
Yesterday we went to the birds of prey museum. They had about ten birds. The Bald Eagle was the coolest and it was pretty active. We were about 15 feet away from it.
There was one other bird that whenever Ethan turned his head right or left, the bird would do the same and some times it looked like the bird would turn his head all the way upside down, it was very funny.

Museums and Lunch
The other day I found another word mom didn't know:
consternation which means amazement or dismay that hinders or throws into confusion.
Today for lunch we had sushi with brown rice instead of white, avocado, red onions, shrimp, bell peppers, sesame seeds, soy sauce, ginger and radish it was delicious!
Tomorrow we are going to a museum here. But we can't decide which one to go to there's a history, birds of prey, art, military history, and a discovery museum.
Ethan wanted to go to the Birds of pray, Doyle wanted to go to the military history, and I wanted to go to the art. So we'll probably draw straws and go to all of the museums over the next couple of months.

Cake Decorating
Lately I've been renting a lot of books from the library on cake decorating and so far I've made two cakes.
The first one mom should of taken the cakes out of the pan while they were still warm and she accidentally made the frosting to thin so
the cake didn't turn out the way I planned...
It was a little lop-sided and most of the frosting melted- but it was delicious.
For the second cake I got the recipe from a book
to make a panda.
He's so fat because I made his head too small and he has a suntan because I toasted the coconut (dad won't eat plain.) The book said to use chocolate cookies for the hands, eyes, ears and feet but I used these sesame crackers covered in chocolate frosting and they were so good.
Because we still have so much leftover cake mom said that next time, we'll make a bunch of cupcakes and whenever we want dessert we'll take five out and I can practice flowers.

Our New House
I can't believe that last Friday we moved to Boise.
It's still a little weird.
The new house doesn't yet feel like home probably because I'm not done unpacking.
My room is huge!
It's about as big as mom and dad's room in Twin. And my closet is almost three times as big as my old one. The only thing I don't like is the bare, tiny yard-nothing but grass.
