University Lake

The weather was very nice this morning, so I took this picture of University Lake.

Mike the Tiger swimming

I got this video of Mike the Tiger swimming this morning. Getting good pics and videos of him is luck of the draw (tigers do sleep about 18-20 hours a day!), but I will keep trying to get some good ones to post.

Spooky Science

We went to Spooky Science at LSU after soccer this morning. Holly had a lot of fun learning about science, and two people said that she had the natural curiosity of a scientist, because she asked lots of questions about how things worked.

Botanic Garden

Holly had soccer again this morning and this time she scored two goals! Afterward we went to the flower garden right next to soccer field.

Fall Fest

We went to yet another Halloween party tonight. Holly's favorite part was the obstacle course, which she did five times in a row.

LSU Halloween Fest

LSU had a Halloween Fest today. Holly went and made several crafts including the black cat in the picture. She also painted a pumpkin and went trick-or-treating. She had a really good time.

Tiger Band Hall - under construction

It was an empty field when we got to Baton Rouge, but the Tiger Band Hall that they are building across the street is starting to take shape. I'm hoping they will have practice rooms that I can go over and use. Of course, I have an electric keyboard in my apartment, but it's difficult to play when the TV's on, etc.

Belle of Baton Rouge

I didn't have school today, so Kari and I decided to visit the Belle of Baton Rouge casino. I was excited that they have my favorite slot machine "Robin Hood's Sherwood Treasure." We only played for a few minutes and won $7.80.

Baton Rouge Zoo

We went to the Baton Rouge Zoo today! It was a lot of fun and we saw a lot of animals. It's much smaller than the KC Zoo, but that is fine because we got to see a lot of animals without getting too tired from walking.

Time to Hit the Books

I'm working on writing my term papers now. Pictured are some of the books I will be perusing for information related to my topics. So if you don't hear from me for a while, you can see why!

Soccer

Today was Holly's first soccer game. Attached is a video and picture of her during practice.
