August 2008
My 6th birthday had a racing theme.  Here I am with my donut cake.
My friends and I got to compete in NASCAR-racing simulators.
Even the Toole sisters were there to represent my blond friends.
This is one of my newer buddies, Noah.  We hang together at school.
This is what the screen looked like before the racing started.
Zoe looks for help as her car plows through a few dozen spectators.
Here I am getting a special award for being such a studly driver.
OK, enough with this racing, let's eat some pizza and donuts!!
Colin always makes the funniest faces when he eats pizza.
And here's my buddy Nabil digging into a slice of pepperoni pizza.
I can't believe I'm six already--before long I'll be driving dad's car!!
Nothing beats the outer rim of a fresh Krispy Kreme chocolate donut.
Papa and Berta even had a good time watching us kids race.
Now seriously, aren't these just the finest looking parents in town?
Before I say good bye, I wanted to include a
shot from the Dinosaur's live show we went
to.  It was pretty awesome watching these
crazy beasts cruise around The Pond.  I sure
am glad those guys are extinct now--they're
scary!!  See ya next month.

Dad busted out and got us
some front row seats to the
Angels game--we were really
close to the action!!
