Kyle participated in the Coles Science Fair again this year. His project this year was “Exploring how well
different brands of popcorn pop”. We had lots of fun counting and popping popcorn. We also ended up eating a lot of popcorn over the course of a week or so. If you’re interested, here’s an NJ.com article about it (alas, no photos of Kyle there). Here’s some of Suzanne’s photos:
His car did okay this year, coming in third in the Bear group (~12 cars), winning at least one heat, maybe two, and 6th in the overall (top three from each of the four groups). He was quite happy. He gets to go to the district race in March. Here’s a video of Kyle’s car being raced. His car is in the silver one in the nearest lane. (Skip to around 30 seconds for the action. I tried to edit it, but couldn’t get it in the right format.)
Here’s a couple of photos: 
Here’s a better photo of the car:
On Saturday, Kyle and I had some fun improving his snow fort, which he had built with Suzanne on Friday’s snow day. It’s all gone now due to the pouring rain we had Monday.
Here’s a couple of photos from Halloween.
I hope you enjoy.
Here’s a quick video of part of the Jedi Academy training session Kyle did while we were at Disney last week. We made a special effort to get to Hollywood Studios early to ensure he got one of the limited spots and it was well worth it. I’ll have many more photos at some point, but I just started going through the roughly 3700 images I took during the trip. If the video is choppy, pause it to let it buffer it fully.
Here are some photos from Kyle’s first day of school.
I just posted some photos of the July 4th fireworks from North Plainfield this year. Enjoy.
Kyle’s Cub Scout pack marched in the Fanwood-Scotch Plains Memorial Day parade. Other than it taking an hour to get started, he had a good time.
For Kyle’s birthday, we decided to use some credit from Toys ‘R’ Us that we got from my mom due to a customer service mixup at Christmas on a new bike. We waited until now as January isn’t a great time for cycling. (As you can see below, apparently neither is March.) As Kyle is quite tall, we needed a full 20″ bike. We did buy training wheels, but they don’t fit as we ended up with a multi-gear bike. (We have something on the way that may fix this.) Anyway, here’s a couple of photos of his first ride, with a lot of help from Suzanne.
I just posted a few photos of Kyle from December and this year.
