Friday Night Friends!

Amelie, Ashley, Audrey, Lilly, and Ryan eating Mac 'N' Cheese and corn-dogs inbetween breaks of running wildly around the house screaming. And these are the memories we cherish!

Winter Sports

Today was Ryan's first time on the ice. He almost cried when he first stepped in the rink and then he didn't want to leave. Perhaps there will be some ice hokey playing in his future.

Let Me Tell You a Story

Fishy
by Ryan Roco
January 31, 2010

Once upon a time there was a mouse named Fishy. He went fishing and caught lots of fishy mouses. It was a mouse, but not a real mouse and he liked writing stories. He loved his mudder and his dad. And he caught some real fish next. He got hurted. He fell down on his bed because he was jumping. That's the end of the story.

Snow Day

We spent the day in Wrightwood playing in the snow.

I'm So Happy!

Ryan is doing the light dance with his Koala friends.

Playing at School

I have so much fun playing at school that mom has to drag me away at the end of the day. What do you expect, there are so many fun things to do here.

I'm pretending to be a firefighter putting out a fire on the tree and rescuing the people.

Thank you for my castle! This is the best Christmas ever!

Inside Ryan's Head

"Look Mom, it's Bob."
"Bob?" You mean Charlie Brown?"
"No, Grandpa Bob."

Marry Me!

Ryan found this ring as we were driving home today. (Recently we've been looking at the pictures from our wedding). Ryan said that he wanted to give the ring to somebody. I asked who and he said that he wanted to give it to me and marry me. Here is the conversation that followed:

R-"Do you want to marry me?"
S-"Yes I do, thank you for asking me."
R-"What do you do to be married?"
S-"You say nice words to each other"
R-"Do you want to say nice words to me?"
S-"Yes. I will love you forever, and I will always try to be nice to you. Now you have to say nice words to me."
R-"I love you the most. I lo...holy moly, there is a school bus...a biiiig school bus! Do you see it, Mommy?"

I'm confused, so does this mean we are officially married?

These are a few of my favorite things!

I cut out pictures from magazines and glued them on a poster.

The Los Angeles Zoo

I went to the zoo with my friend Mia. We rode on the train, saw the monkeys and the giraffes, took a ride on the tram, and played in the park. What a super fun day!

The Mouse
by Ryan Roco.
January 5, 2010

The old mouse went off to find his friends. To play in the barn and to play in the mouse yard. He didn't find his friends. They were lost. The mouse had a stick with a net that he could hold on to. He could capture flies, and bees, and mouse. He captured his friends and brought them back to the barn to see the turkeys, and the pigs, and the donkeys, and the horses.

The end!
