Happy Birthday, Sis. Chase!

I miss you! Happy birthday!

Samson's Birthday, Part Two

Here's a giraffe, eating the fence. At least, it looks like it! We were waiting in line for the cake there.


Here I am, eating Charm City Cake. Its frosting was SO good! We all were tasting it for a while after.

Dad licked his plate! We were filmed, even as Kimmy said we wouldn't. She was talking, saying we wouldn't be filmed, and Stevie and I just point at the camera. We were laughing about it the rest of the zoo.

Samsons's Birthday, Part One

Today is Samson the elephant's 2nd birthday! Samson is an elephant at the Baltimore Zoo. He's cute!


We went there and got our picture in front of inflatable birthday cake they had. We then took the tram to near the polar exibit.

We had planned earlier that we would go to the National Zoo. However, Mom found out that the Charm City Cake people would make a cake for Samson. She told Stevie in Baltimore of that, and he freaked. Here is their cake. It is an elephant!


Stevie is in awe, staring at the filming. He likes the show of the place, Ace of Cakes.


Stevie got his picture with the crew. He also had a map signed. He was SO amazed!

Let's Eat Some Pi!

We celebrated Pi Day at the Maryland Science Center! Pi Day is March 14th, for the first three digits of pi are 3.14. There is a great work of art in front of the science center. It is made of metal pieces and is unique.

The Pi Day part had a quiz about pi's history, a pie-eating contest, a chain where the numbers of pi were clothes-pinned on, and an area where you recited as many digits of pi as you know.

The museum itself was fun. An area called Newton's Alley had a mist table, which was very fun to clear of mist. I stuck my face in it! The space area was cool. The area in it, SpaceLink, was fun to play in. The "Dock the Shuttle" was fun to watch. The planetarium had a show called "Sky Live", and it was about the stars tonight at about 11:00 P.M. The other show, "Dark Matters", wasn't as fun, but still cool.

Afterwards, we celebrated Pi Day some more. We had a pie-eating contest on our own! Stevie won, but not by much. Kimmy almost beat him.
Happy Pi Day! 3.1415926535!
