My Grandma’s Visit

]My grandma came to visit me for my 20th birthday. I feel old! We had a birthday party on Friday at my house. The party started at my house with my old neighbors, Brian and Anne, and Mary Kate. Mary Kate spent the night on Friday and then we went downtown to the Denver Library on Saturday. My grandma, mom, and dad went too. My favorite part about the whole thing was the downtown library. It is so big and homey. They have lots of good books. We all went to lunch after the library at Steuben’s. Steuben’s is on the TV food show Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. I had a lobster roll and coconut cake. It was really really really really really good. It was probably the best lobster roll I ever did eat. The coconut cake tasted dreamy. I really recommend this restaurant and give it 5 stars! Let me know if you have gone there! I am looking forward to somebody visiting next week. If you would like to come see me and visit my favorite places in Denver, please do!

When My Mom Left

My mom left me to go to Kansas City and I got to spend time with my Aunt Kim. It was great! My Aunt Kim flew from Oakland, CA to see me. Aunt Kim is my mom’s brother’s wife. It was a really special time that I don’t get to do often. We made chocolate oreos and chocolate covered peanuts. We went to lots of libraries together. We spent 4 days together. I really appreciate my Aunt Kim spending those days with me because I know she has a busy life! Thank you, Aunt Kim! I love you so much!

My Old Bus Driver

I got to see my old bus driver, EJ. He drove me in middle school. I missed him because he moved out of state. He moved to New Orleans, LA because he retired. I want to be like him and retire! Haha! I am too young but I feel really old, so maybe I should retire! Last week, my old bus driver came to town and we went for Mexican food at Los Chingones at DTC. I did not really like the food, Little Anita’s is better. Here is a picture of me, EJ, and his wife Susan.

My Food Weekend

This weekend I went to Cafe Brazil. It is located Downtown Denver by the Broncos Stadium. I went there with my aide from Kindergarten, Lisa, and Mary Kate. It was really incredible food. The flavors at Cafe Brazil are really amazing. I went for dinner and I had the chocolate cake for dessert! It was the best I ever had. It was on Diner, Drive-Ins, and Dives. I highly recommend it to all my blog readers in Colorado! If you are out of town, I think you should go to Cafe Brazil when you visit.

My Labor Day Weekend

On Saturday, I hung out at home with my mom and dad and three dogs. On Sunday, I went to the library with Mary Kate and my mom. On Sunday night I went to a block party. I made brownies with my mom for the block party. The brownies had a symphony candy bar in the middle. At the block party I met a new neighbor who I really like. They moved here from England and they have English accents. At the Block Party I met a new baby. She was so cute! On Monday, I hung out at home with my mom, my dad, Mary Kate, and my dogs. I had massage therapy yesterday at my house and I made a video for my massage therapists. I hope everybody who reads my blog had a nice Labor Day weekend!

My Summer 2018

My summer was really boring but I got to spend time with Nana and Ling Ling. They came to Denver, Colorado to visit me because I had a  surgery. The Doctors and Surgeons of Children’s Colorado opened up my spine and took the bottom part out. They did this to help my legs and my pain. I didn’t have any pain from my surgery. I had a lot of recovery time, 5 days in the hospital and then I got to rest at home.

 

During my hospital stay, a lot of people came to visit me. These people include Mr. Greg Critchett, Miss Liz, Miss Mary Kate, my Mom, my Dad, my Uncle John (my mom’s brother), my Grandpa, Nana, and Ling Ling.

 

When I got home from the hospital, we had a party for me. Enjoy the pictures!

My Favorite Starbucks Drinks

My favorite Starbucks drink is a Butter Beer Latte. It has caramel, cinnamon, and toffee nut in it.  It is topped with whipped cream and caramel drizzle. My Grandpa Bob told me about it. The drink is on the secret menu and you have to have the recipe to make it. The drink is really sweet and makes me feel good in the morning. It is inspired by the Harry Potter series because they make a butter beer. Sometimes I get my Butter Beer iced. Please try my drink and comment what you think about! Thank you!

Picture of me with Grandpa Bob who told me about it. He is in the blue shirt. I call him Ling Ling.
