a replacement...

since sam decided he was too busy to be bothered with his 'sock chores', i replaced him! bai was more than happy to have the money in her little paw. when she went and showed him the $3.00 (5 cents a pair....$3.00 earned....you do the math! that's A LOT of socks!!) he was a bit bothered by that. don't worry, dear sam, you can have your job back next saturday! MOM DOESN'T WANT IT!!

silly, silly BOX heads....

die hard football fans...

money talks....especially to sydney and kaiden!!

my dear-creative-fun-mom tammy came up with a creative way to keep kids (all 17 of them) busy, she told them there would be a Lego competition AND A PRIZE for whoever came up with the most interesting Lego creation. since only 2 of the kids stuck with it long enough to actually join, they both won!! by the way, tammy also informed them that the prize would be a dollar from mr. ryan! :) yup, she's smart and creative alright!!
once the money was being handed out, our jackson decided it was high time to get in one the action. since lik was out of money, mom owes him a buck. :) (sorry buddy, i don't have a picture of you but we'll get one.)
