Chocolate spends time with Connor

This is Connor. He took Chocolate home for a fun visit, too.
Here they are on their way home in Connor's moms mini van.

 These are Connor's parents. They were very nice to Chocolate
and took good care of him while he was visiting their house.

This is a picture of Chocolate visiting Connor's penguin from his project.
As you can see, everyone did something different. It was a wonderful project.
The kids had a lot of fun making their own penguin.

Chocolate ended up in another basketball hoop!! This time it was outside when it was cold and there was snow on the ground!
He and Connor still had fun playing basketball. Connor's mom made them hot chocolate when they came inside.

Kate M. takes Chocolate on a trip

Kate M. took Chocolate on a trip to Ohio. Ohio is the state that is to  East of Indiana. Kate's Grandma  and Grandpa live in Ohio, so Kate and her family drove over to visit. Kate's Grandparents live on a beautiful lake. Chocolate loved the visit.

Here they are resting and swinging on Grandma and Grandpa's  front porch.

While the family was in Ohio, they went to
Cincinnati and spent a few days playing at Great Wolf
Lodge. It is an indoor water park that has slides, pools,
and every other fun water activity you could think of.

This is where Kate and Chocolate saw Sofia
and her family. They had a lot of fun together.

Sofia and Chocolate have a busy visit

This is Sofia. She had Chocolate come home to her house. They had a very bust time. Chocolate hadn't tried so many sports at one house before. They stayed very busy but had a great time!

We have a lot of these in Indianapolis.
 They are great exercise

This is Chocolate and Sofia climbing on a climbing wall,

This is Sofia's sister teaching Chocolate how
to serve a volleyball.

In the state next to us, Ohio, there is a really fun
water park called Great Wolf Lodge.
Sofia and Kate went there. You will
see more of this park with Kate,

This is Chocolate with Sofia's penguin model. We studied about penguins and made a model as part of the project.
Sofia made a Macaroni Penguin. It was very well done!

Chocolate and Matt

This is Matt. He was excited to have Chocolate come to his house. 

Here, they are playing with some of Matt's toys.

Matt has a little basketball hoop in his room. He put Chocolate in the hoop. Chocolate thought that it was fun to play basketball - even if he was the ball! :)

This is Matt's cat. Chocolate had fun playing with him, too. Here, they are resting after a fun time.

After a very busy and fun day, Chocolate jumped into bed and fell right to sleep!

Chocolate and Kate K.

SNOW. Chocolate had a lot of fun playing with Kate in the snow.
Kate dressed Chocolate so that he would stay nice and warm in the cold weather.

Kate's family went to a friends house to watch a football game.
It is called the Super Bowl. It is the big championship pro football game of the year.
Football is an American sport that lots of boys and men play.

Everyone seems to like to read to Chocolate. :) Maybe that is because we are learning
how to become great readers in first grade and we like to read all of the time. Chocolate enjoys it very much.

Here is Chocolate helping Kate fill out the sheet that we share in our class that tells the class what fun things the kids did while Chocolate was visiting. It was another fun visit!

Jacob and Chocolate             

This is Jacob and his little brother.
Chocolate had so much fun with them.

                             

This is Jacob's dog. He let Chocolate
ride on him. They became good friends.

               

Jacob and Chocolate liked to bounce on the bed together.

After playing, Chocolate had to get ready for bed.
He took a shower after Jacob got finished.

Chocolate and Jacob had cereal for breakfast
before they came back to school.

Chocolate goes home with Madelyn.

When Madelyn and Chocolate got home from school, they were really hungry. We love to eat popcorn as a snack.
Do you eat popcorn as a snack, too?

This is Chocolate and Madelyn. They are playing with Madelyn's  stuffed puppies.

Madelyn takes piano lessons. She was practicing and teaching Chocolate how to play a song, too.

Chocolate loves to read. Here he is reading a Dr. Seuss book titled "Ten Apples Up On Top". Do you have Dr. Seuss books where you live, too?

Chocolate visits Robert's  house

This is Robert and his family. (His sister is taking the picture). Chocolate had a wonderful time at Robert's house. They had fun playing football, practicing Robert's piano lesson and watching television. They also played with Robert's hamster. Chocolate loved how furry it was. :)
