My First Customer

Today I had my first customer ever.

She bought a silver baby turtle for $4. I made it on my printer and then someone else wanted it, and that felt really exciting.

That was my first sale.

Silver baby turtle.
Four dollars.

10 out of 10.

Love,
Riley

My first Pop-up

My first Pop-up

Today was my first Pop Up and it was a crazy success.

It was at ExplorePDX and it started at 1pm. A big thank you to everyone there! It was non stop. Dad and I started at 1pm and it was non-stop, I didn’t even have time to eat my nuggies or play.

Luckily when we wrapped at 3pm, I was able to play and we ended with ice cream. I had rainbow sherbert. Dad had strawberry and chocolate.

It was a perfect day for us both.

10.5 out of 10. Already excited to plan more events!

My First NBA Game

My First NBA Game

On Friday, February 6th, after pitching the board, I was invited to my first Portland Trail Blazers game.

Little did I know I would be invited to join the players on the court for the National Anthem. Wow. What an honor.

Dad had to watch from the stands, but he took some great pictures of me. After that, we were invited up to a suite to watch the game and eat cookies. That was pretty amazing.

It was the perfect place to start promoting Riley’s Mini Makers, and I had such a great time.

Thank you so much to Erica Soto at Smile Oregon for making this happen.

And as for the Blazers, you now have a fan for life.

Bye have a good day,
Riley
