The big hike

We found blueberries. We ate them. We were at Black Mountain. These were wild blueberries.
We had a nice day.
I'm playing at the top, I think, where it's nice and rocky. My teeth and lips are blue because I was eating so much blueberries.
Look at the top view!
Wow! I can't believe how many mushrooms those were! There are 12 mushrooms.

This 4th of July parade was great because I was in it!

I was sitting in the stroller. Because you were taking me to the marching band! I didn't play the band. Who did? Sebastian! And Daddy, too!

It's Sebastian! He was marching in the band! [He's at the front left in the pink shirt, drumming.]
I'm drummin'. It's great! I loved the parade. I started at a high school, then we marched down past Walgreen's. We ended at a place that had an open space that was very green because of all the grass. [The common] I saw Mama, DeeDee, Lydia, and Christine. I was in the WVEW marching band group. WVEW is a radio show. It's for anybody. It's in the Brooks House. There are microphones to speak in. There's even a CD player or maybe two for your CDs. They play only one song, though.
Look! There's Daddy! He's far away, though. I had a very fun time playing my drum. And I was next to a lady I liked.

Animusic 1


I love this movie. I think I've watched it about 8 or 16 times. My favorite songs are each one. They are called: Future Retro, Stick Figures, Aqua Harp, Drum Machine, Pipe Dream, Acoustic Curves, and Harmonic Voltage.
It's so fun to watch, I almost never want to watch anything else.
Dorian calls it "Inamusic". He calls them "robop drums." And "robop guitars" or "robop horns." I like best about this that it's so pop and rock n roll and stuff, that I just like those types of music.

We're lookin' for Blue's Clues

I'm looking excitedly at the microphone. Because I woke up with a pleasant feeling. I knew that Rock Band was just one day after. And I couldn't wait. I was so excited, I just felt so pleasant, I couldn't believe my ears. And right in the night, I couldn't believe my eyes, either, because there was something circular right on my microphone. I tiptoed to it! It was a piece of paper. I tried to rip it off!!!! It didn't do it so well, it was taped. And suddenly, it was a clue!!!
I'm sitting on the guitar case. And I also found a clue there in the morning. And the last clue I found in the bedroom in the morning was a drumset. What I did when I found all the clues was first, draw the clue in my handy, dandy notebook. And then, I ran to my thinking chair. And I thought about what Blue wanted to do on that day. And suddenly I thought that she wanted to play Rock Band. The end.

Rock Band

I'm playing drums. Those are not real drums. They're just drums for a game called Rock Band.
I'm playing the bass. The character names were: Hott Mama (which Mama choosed), I chose myself to be called (and the people who were playing the drums) Joy Volume, and the great bass star was D. D. Buggg, and there was Daddy (and the people who were playing the guitar) called Buff Meatchest. The band name was called "Clearwater Explorers."
My favorite song I played was "I Think I'm Paranoid" by Garbage. I wanted Rock Band for Christmas 'cause it's so fun. We played it at Dustin and Cortney's.

Watch out! Don't forget it's my birthday! Bow bow!

We're eating lunch at my house for my birthday and Dorian's birthday. It isn't really our birthday. My birthday is November 6th. Dorian's birthday is November 10th. We were on our birthday party. I invited a lot of friends. I can't really say all of them. I don't really have time. I had Riley, David, Lydia! There's the White Pants!!!!! The White Pants is me, Lydia, Dorian and Daddy. We played 7 songs.Dorian's playing keyboards.
Lydia was singing and a guitarist. I was a guitarist, I sang a little bit of vocals and played drums. Daddy played drums and guitar. Dorian played keyboards. It was a great band!
We're playing with our toy noses. Those came from our goodie bags from iParty. The bags weren't from iParty, the noses were from iParty. I got a lot of presents. I remember a telescope, a camera, an autoharp and a toolbench. I remember some blue silk from Riley and a star planetarium from Lydia.

Show!

In the morning, I got a big idea. I thought what fun it would be to have a show. What I planned was to have costumes, books, cars, animals, bugs, and music. So we got out everything we needed from the backstage which was our bedroom and took it to the music room where we were going to perform. We made a program and I passed out tickets and we painted 2 billboards. (This show wasn't going to perform without passing out tickets.)
This is us in our costumes for a short Act 1.
Dorian's doing his butterfly. I'm performing the music. His butterfly flied and danced.
Dorian's holding Kermit the Frog. I think I'm starting to put down my guitar.
There I am a magical fairy. And what I did while I was a fairy was waving my wand and go Bing!
Right now I am fixing a chair. Dorian's playing the xylophone.I'm playing the drums. And we had lots of things for our show. Even a white curtain and a red ribbon to wrap it up when the curtain would open. Quinn helped do it. But the show did turn out well. We had a medium audience: Quinn, Cortney, Dustin, Jeremy, and Allison. And the audience did like the show. Especially Jeremy.

Music, Maisy, kids, father, mother, and cake

That's the band! [Cymbal sounds] We played Hotel Yorba as the last song.
Oh, that's a funny DeeDee! He was dancing around with Maisy. He was also helping Maisy play the keyboard.
That's me and DeeDee and the cake and Maisy having breakfast. The cake was having egg, peach and 6 pieces of orange. Maisy was having 7 pieces of the other orange. I had an imaginary piece of orange the cake gave to me. And also, Maisy had one slice of apple and a cereal bowl.

This is not a game

What happened last night? There was a BIG surprise! We were going off to Noah's so we could do a special show. The drumset was in the garage. And there was ride cymbal 1 and ride cymbal 2. A crash cymbal and a high hat. Our name of the band was The Ladybugs. I was the drummer and Daddy played his guitar. That was our summer band. And so there was the singer for a different summer band called Meat Buffett and the singer was Ethan, 2 guitarists: Rob and Jeremy, and Noah on drums. [From left to right in poster illustration: Ethan, Jeremy, Noah, Rob] I'm practicing for the drums. And I'm talking to Tim and right there is Noah.
I'm playing guitar and talking what's going to happen.
There were no thunderstorms or rain storms. Those little sparkles are reflecting of the smoke. We played "Hotel Yorba," "I Think I Smell a Rat" (both by the White Stripes), and then we played "Fake Believe" by They Might Be Giants, and then we played "In the Evening" and "We Shall not be Moved." And then we played the last song "Now It's Time for So Long" from Blue's Clues.
That's my band!
And there's Daddy's band. And they played a song I liked. Guess which kind? "In the Garage."
This is me and DeeDee watching the band. Watching really good. And Dorian was saying, "Rock and Roll!" And I was saying, "More Rock and Roll! More Rock and Roll!"

Rockin' rockin'

I have a video. And me and Daddy are playing a band. But it didn't work out very well for Lex. What we did work out very well was "I Think I Smell a Rat." That song is by the White Stripes. What instrument I'm playing is the drums. Who took this video was Uncle Jim.

Hey! Look over there! I added a poll!

I like drumming but my motion tag didn't work. A motion tag is an imaginary tag that is on the front of your shirt. It glows in the dark. And makes you feel good so you don't catch cold or get sick.

That's DeeDee. Oh funny DeeDee. Dorian's playing the good drumset.
We played 2 songs. And we had so much fun.

Nothing but Jim

Bungie Bunga! Donkey Konga! My favorite game. Jim is here and Elena is here.
I am playing Donkey Konga. I'm playing a song. The ones that say one or two bongos are the ones I play.
That's Jim and DeeDee. And Jim is looking at me.
I'm on the elephant tree. The elephant tree is on a hike. The hike is close to our house but farther than Riley's. It's Putney Mountain. And also Putney Town Forest.
This is me. I'm standing next to a monster house. There was a crazy, scary cat that lived there. It did a hunt for mice. Because it was on a walk. And it eats mice.
Elena's playing the electric guitar. I'm playing the drums. Our concert was funny and good.

DeeDee's having fun. He's makin' everyone feel crazy. How he's making all the people crazy is because he's just crazy pouncin' on everyone.

I had a good visit with Uncle Jim and Aunt Elena. My favorite part was everything.

Philly Saturday-- Great fun!

Dorian and me are making funny faces. You know what Dorian's eating? A munchkin. What I was doing is reading a book. We're going to Philadelphia! Who I was going to visit was Emily and Erin. They are my friends. They are also my very, very special mates. They're also my cousins.
We were in Philadelphia at ARTspiration. I'm making my T-shirt.
Dorian's making a crazy lookin' shirt.
I'm doing hopscotch.
I'm painting on a wall.
I saw African dancers. The lady was doing a show first. She weared some crazy masks. One of a man and one of a woman. The African dancers danced. Some other people played the drums.
