Mickey’s Adventures with Ella!

Mickey and I had a busy weekend!  Mickey thinks that maybe Donald Duck should have come to play with us.  We did so many awesome things that we cannot wait to tell you about.  

On Friday, Mom picked us up from school and our adventure began.  My cousin, Morgan and my Aunt Tami came to visit us from Chicago.  They met Mickey years ago when he came home with my big sister, Alex.  We went to a big dinner for a charity that night with my whole family including my grandparents.  I was glad I had Mickey there to keep me company.  We ate lots of shrimp cocktail.  We were so tired when we got home but Mickey said he was afraid of the dark so we put on my Halloween mummy lights but he was scared of those too so I turned them off and put on a nightlight for him.

The next morning we had to wake up early for my hockey game.  We got all of my hockey gear on and Mickey asked to sit with my hockey stick when I was getting ready because he thought it was a bench.  Mickey was my good luck charm because I scored 2 goals during the game!  Mickey said he had fun watching me but he was very cold.  I yelled to my dad through the glass to give Mickey my jacket so he could feel comfortable.  During the middle of my game, Mickey yelled to me - your cousins are here! I was so excited to have everyone watching me.

Later in the day we had to get ready for another dinner.  It was for my sister's birthday.  Alex is turning 16!  Mom and I were looking back at the blog that Alex wrote when she had Mr. Pask in 3rd grade.  It was so funny because I have Mickey on Alex’s birthday and she had Mickey on my birthday.  There’s a picture of me at my 2nd birthday party in Alex’s blog!

From my sister’s blog.  I’m the one in the little green dress.

Mickey’s and my favorite part of dinner that night was hanging out with my cousin Morgan and talking about me being a junior bridesmaid in her wedding.   Before dinner Mickey was always eating the cheese off my crackers when I was not looking.  We shared spaghetti and had no room for dessert.  We were so tired and stuffed that we fell asleep on Daddy in the restaurant and Daddy put us to bed when we got home.

Mickey woke me up on Sunday morning and then Mickey went into Jack’s room and Alex's room and woke them up too.  Mickey was laughing so hard and his tummy hurt from all the food he ate last night.  We had breakfast and got ready for my babysitter Jeanine to come over and play with us.  We had so much fun playing with Shopkins. Mickey covered himself in Shopkins and asked if he could bring one home with him but I said you have to talk to Mr. Pask about it.  Jeanine brought me and Mickey to my friend Addy’s house.

After we played at Addy’s for a little while, we all went to our neighbor’s house for an Octoberfest party. Mickey asked for cheese at the party.  They said they had swiss cheese but Mickey whispered in my ear that he did not like swiss cheese so he said no thank you.  I told Mickey I would give him cheddar cheese when we get home.  Mickey said sounds like a plan.  Mommy and Alex got home from the city and Daddy and Jack got home from the football game and they all met us at our neighbor’s party.  Mickey was crying because he did not want to leave.  We had so much fun at all the dinners and parties we went to this weekend.

I hope Mickey remembers me.  I wish he could come stay with me again but I hope he has fun on his other adventures!  I hope Mickey asks them for lots of cheese!  : )

I love you Mickey! <3 Ella

Mickey at the Surgent's family

This weekend Mickey and I had lots of fun times. He was a part of my family. We played cards, looked at my basketball posters, went outside to play basketball, played video games and read books at night. Mickey did my math homework with me. He was a big help. My friends got to meet him too.

On Saturday we went down to my dad's work. He works at a gymnastic school. Mickey and I had so much fun jumping on the trampoline and playing in the block pit. We also tried all the new American Ninja Warrior stuff which was very hard for Mickey because he doesn't have five fingers. I helped him by letting him sit on my back while I climbed.

On Sunday we all went to church. Mickey was sleeping in church and he woke up just in time to join me for my CCD class. After that we watched football all Sunday together. We were lucky because we had Monday off from school. We played video games. I was Sacramento Kings and Mickey was the Golden State Warriors. I won by a three pointer. At the end of the game we said "good game." After we played video games we went to swimming class. Mickey came with me to watch. I wanted him to join me but he wasn't waterproof.

Mickey and I had a fun weekend filled with sports, video games, friends and activities. I will miss Mickey but look forward to hearing about his other adventures.

Mickey's long weekend with Katie

Today was Friday I rode home with Mickey in my hands. When I got home I had to go upstairs and get ready for swimming and Mickey said he wanted to go.  So I said sure!  But Mickey did not have a bathing suit so he could only watch my swim team practice.  After swimming we went home and had dinner and then we played.  Mickey was tired and went to bed, but I watched a movie with my family and then went to bed.
This morning was Saturday.  I got up early, at 8am, for soccer practice.  Mickey and I got dressed and went out for soccer practice.  He met my soccer team and cheered me on.  After soccer I went home and had 2 hours to get ready for the Spaghetti meet at the Westfield YMCA.  This is a meet where my friends and I do relay races and afterwards we walk to the other YMCA and eat spaghetti.  Mickey cheered me on at my swim race. Mickey and I could not go to the spaghetti part because we had a birthday party to go to.  The party was at the nail salon and he watched my friends get their nails done.  When we got home from the party we had dinner and then watched tv before we had to go to bed.
This morning was Sunday. I woke up and went to my brothers soccer game.  At the game I read my book and Mickey looked at the pages.  After we had to go to my soccer game.  Mickey cheered me and my friends.  We had fun.  Mickey and me then went to my friends house. We had a lot of fun.  We stayed up late.  We got home and had to go right to bed.
This morning was Monday and school is closed.  We went over to my friend Audrey Stacks house and Mickey saw his old friend Ethan Stack.  We played a lot and had a lot of fun.  After that I had swimming and Mickey got to come with me.  Then we went to McDonalds for dinner and came home and watch TV and went to bed.
This morning is Tuesday and Mickey and I had to go to school but not Franklin school.  My mom works at Holy Trinity and they had school so we had to go since we could not stay home alone.  At school Mickey and I worked on my Pumpkin Fair poster.  We had fun.  Mommy only works half days so then we went to Starbucks for lunch and had a bagel with butter and a sugar cookie.  Then we got to go shopping.  We then had to pick up my sister from Kindergarten.  Then we went to soccer practice and Mickey saw a lot of my friends.  We then went home and had dinner.  We were so tired so we went to bed.And that was Mickey's supper fun long weekend.

Mickey's fun weekend with Micaela

   On Friday, Mickey met Minnie, the way it happened was very interesting. Mickey loved to look around my room. He found a motorcycle and he decided to ride it, he came up across me. I told him he had to wear a helmet. Mickey was a very good mouse, he put on a helmet and started wondering around my room. He met three beautiful ladies (they were my American Girl dolls). Then he found Minnie, he said she was so pretty and kind, they became best friends forever.

   On Saturday, Mickey and I played soccer. Soccer was fun, at first Mickey did not know how to play. Once Mickey got the hang of it, I showed him some tricks, he said,"I think I should go on your shoulders to get a closer look". Playing soccer was a good exercise for me and Mickey.

   Mickey and I played karaoke on Sunday. Mickey chose the song "Wrecking Ball" because he was feeling so alive. Mickey loved karaoke, he said " I wish I could do this every day" Mickey sat on top of the karaoke machine, he was so feeling so joyful. Karaoke was fun, we spent a long time singing.

Mickey Mouse's Weekend with the Canavan Family

We were very happy to bring Mickey home for the weekend. The whole family made sure we took good care of Mickey and always kept him safe.

We started Friday night by playing some video games while Mickey watched and cheered us on.

On Saturday we woke up early and went to get breakfast at the diner. Mickey didn't have much of an appetite but was happy to be there. After breakfast we went to get Nolan's hair cut at the barber. We let Mickey sit in the barber chair even though he didn't need a haircut. Then we went to Tamaques Park to work on fielding for the upcoming baseball season.

On Sunday we took Mickey to church with us. Mickey was very good and didn't make any noise. After, we went home and had some light-saber battles (just toys so no one gets hurt). The weekend went by quickly.

We're sad to see Mickey go, but we know he's going to another adventure. He's a lot of fun to have around and can visit with us anytime.

Mickey's visit with Chloe C.

        I was so happy I got Mickey this weekend!  After school, I brought him to girls scouts and he watched us practice our dance.  He really enjoyed the music.
        On Saturday morning, I brought him to my basketball game and he had lots of fun. He also took pictures after the game with friends.  Next, we went home and he watched my dad and I play paddle.  He almost got hit by the ball so many times, but he refused to leave his spot on the sofa. After that, he went out to dinner with my family. 

        The next morning, Mickey watched television with us and had breakfast.   He really enjoyed watching the kids baking championship and cheered for his favorites.  Then off to my sister's basketball game and her team won! Afterwards, we went to visit my grandma and grandpa.   We all went to dinner to a Japanese restaurant and my aunt, uncle and cousin met us there.   Mickey and I watched the chef cook on a large silver grill.  When he was cooking, he threw vegetables in the air and we tried to catch them in our mouth.  On our drive home, Mickey and I looked out the window and watched the stars.   What a nice weekend with Mickey!

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!
