Here is a photo album of some of our experiences. The cover is of us in Tahoe... snow in the middle of summer! It was a spectacular year!

Selling Birdhouses and Watching Robots Fight!
I recently finished selling birdhouses at the Vineyard of Faith Church. They were having a Holiday Sale. I was one of the vendors. I was selling birdhouses and picture frames that I painted myself (with my family's help, too). I made about $150! I sold almost my entire collection. I have another sale this Saturday in Rohnert Park, at the University of Sports Holiday Craft Fair.
The money I am earning is set aside for traveling in the United States. We will be going back on the trip when we go to see my mom's friend, Mr. Ty, get married. From Texas, we will then explore the rest of the South and hopefully, go towards New York. But going to the East will depend on if we raise enough money with fundraising. I plan to give inspirational speeches about overcoming challenges to achieve your goals.
Here are some pictures of me making birdhouses with my sister and then later of me selling them at the Vineyard of Faith Holiday Fair.
I still have quite a few birdhouses available for sale and you can see the selection on my new website. It's not live yet, but it will be soon... soon!
I recently attended a Robotics Event in San Mateo. It was a really cool event because we saw a bunch of robots fight and my favorites were Sewer Snake and Texas Heat. Here is Sewer Snake.
Here is Texas Heat.
These robots fought other robots but not each other.
I am now making plans with my friend, Riley, to make a robot. One of the parents in our Boy Scout troop is an engineer who is helping us with this project. I'm excited. My mother already donated a computer monitor for parts.
Tonight, I'm setting up my Christmas decorations and the fake tree. That will be fun!
