The keys have changed our lives. The 5 of us have gone to so many cool places we never thought we'd get to see. Duncan's head is filled with paint jar memories and Jeff and Kim play around with the Music box all the time. We realized you can only use the Anywhere Key with doors you've seen before. I tried going to space and it didn't work. So anytime we thought of a place we hadn't ever been before, we looked through books and magazines and movies. Erin told me she always wanted to see the beaches in California. So I watched Beverly Hills Cop and took her there. We sat on the Santa Monica Pier and watched the sunset. I was so nervous but I kissed her right before the sun went down and I think she's my girlfriend now.

I'm excited to be in high school and I'm glad I have Jeff and Kim and Erin starting with me. I don't know what I'd do without them and Duncan. I know we're all getting older and growing up but I hope we never grow apart and I hope we never forget the magic of the keys.
