Mickey's last February days with Michael

     Wow, what a weekend!  Mickey was with me at some of the most important events of my year!  On Saturday, Mickey came to my Odyssey of the Mind tournament.  I was really nervous because if my team didn't win 1st, 2nd or 3rd, we wouldn't move on to the state tournament.  I was so excited when Mickey came and saw me perform. When I was waiting to hear who moves on, the announcers waited until the end to announce 1st place. My stomach became so knotty, but I kept thinking about how Mickey would give us good luck.  And he did!  My team won 1st place!  We will move on to states in April.  This is a picture of my team:  

     On Sunday, Mickey came to my last "8 years old and under" swim meet.  I swam in a 200 yard freestyle relay with my teammates and friends Noah LeBlank, Keaton Sheperd and Hudson Willcomes (they are in the first picture below). I also swam my first 50 yard butterfly, my first 50 yard backstroke, and a 50 yard freestyle. I thought about how he brought me luck last night and hoped that with him in the balcony, I would swim even faster than usual.  And I did!  I beat my personal best in the 50 free and did well in my other events also.  Mickey helped me again! 

   
     To celebrate my terrific weekend, my Nana took me out to lunch.  Mickey came too.  We went to the Summit Diner.  Their pancakes were so good!  Mickey didn't order, because he wasn't hungry.  Nana and I talked about how she and my dad and my grandfather used to go there all the time.  Mickey didn't say anything - he's a quiet mouse!  I had such a fun weekend with Mickey.  He definitely brings me good luck! 

Mickey Visits The Horowitz Family

I had a terrific time with Mickey over the weekend! On Friday afternoon Mickey and I relaxed and played Future Fight on my I - pod touch. I beat three levels and won ten arena battles. Next we went to play tennis. I played doubles with my friends Jacob, Annie, and Tyler.

On Saturday, at eight in the morning, I took Mickey to basketball. I scored once and got hit in the head once. After that, Mickey and I played Star Wars Risk. I was the Empire while Mickey played as the Rebels. I won of course, because I was making the card choices for Mickey. After that, Mickey watched my dad and I play tennis. My dad won six games, three sets, and one match to four games, two sets, and zero matches. After that, Mickey and I went to bed.

On Sunday, my mom took us shopping. I picked out The Lego set of the Avenger’s Tower. Mickey picked out a huge version of himself! I can’t wait till the next time Mickey comes over.

Chloe K. and Mickey's Valentine's Weekend

"Yay!"  Today was my week to take Mickey home.  I took  him home after our class party.  When we got home we took Mickey out of his bag.  I kept him on my dresser so he can see what was going on.  His adventures with the Katz family all started on Friday.

We wanted to take Mickey to New York City.  Luckily Grandma and Grandpa's view from their apartment was the Hudson River and the George Washington Bridge.  Before we went to Grandma and Grandpa's apartment we stopped at Brownstone Grill. It had the best pancakes ever and Mickey thought so too.  When we went back to the apartment Mickey watched Maddie and I swim.  He gave me high tens when I did back flips in the water.  We couldn't stay there too long because I had gymnastics that night.  So when we got back we all ate dinner.  Mickey watched me at gymnastics.


On Saturday I had a basketball game, Mickey cheered me on.  After basketball we went to my sister Maddie's hockey game.  Mickey and I were FREEZING!  Then we went out to dinner with our family friends.  Mickey thought the food was delicious.


Today was Valentine's Day!  Mickey and I woke up.  We went to Mom and Dad's room and opened cards and presents.  Mickey was excited so was I.  After we opened gifts we went downstairs for breakfast.  Dad made pancakes.  Then we went to my friend's house.  We all played together.  When it was time to go we got our shoes on.  Then, we went out to dinner.  When we came back we all went to watch some TV.  Then we got ready to get in bed.  Mickey and I had one more day together then it was time to say good bye.          

Mickey’s adventure at Khera’s residence!

It was an exciting Saturday morning as Mickey and I went to my basketball game which was Louisville vs. Michigan State. I play for team Louisville. Mickey watched me score 10 points in a 56-14 victory for us. Mickey also tried shooting the basketball but he couldn’t throw it high enough but surprisingly he threw it pretty high for a mouse like him. 

Later that afternoon we took Mickey snow tubing to Camp Gaw. It was so much fun to hold Mickey while snow tubing. At the cafeteria Mickey, my brother and I drank a nice cup of hot chocolate and ate mac and cheese bites with some French fries. It was whisker licking good to Mickey because it was his first time trying all that food. 

When we got back home Mickey was sad because he loved snow tubing and the food but Mickey knew that another fun day was going to come. On Sunday Mickey and I went for roller skating. Mickey was fast but not fast enough to keep up with me.  Go Mickey!
