So we were at Dodger Stadium a couple of weeks ago. This complete stranger comes up to Kelee and me all freaked out telling us he thinks Ryan looks exactly like the kid in the movie The Shining. I've seen that movie many times, but I never made the connection between Danny and Ryan. Take a look at the picture. What do you think? There are definitely some similarities, although I think it may just be the long hair. Ryno is clearly more adorable, but appears to lack any psychic abilities -- at least so far.
I've taught Ryan to do the "Danny isn't here Mrs. Torrance" thing with his finger, which I find hilarious and entertaining.
Bummer that the Dodgers lost to the Phillies and got knocked out of the post season.

Gotta Love Disneyland!

For fall break we decided to head to California. The kids love going to Disneyland, what kid doesn't? We usually come over at Christmas time, but we have a busy December this year. We are glad we did. Yesterday, we got off the Big Thunder Mtn train ride to find 2 Disneyland employees handing out 'Dream Passes', which are badges that hang around your neck that give you fast pass privileges for the day. It was pretty nice at times to have that. These guys love Indiana Jones...they can't get enough of it!
Ryan was also picked to participate in the 'Jedi Training Academy'! I thought he was going to cry when Darth Vader came out and stood right next to him! He did great though! It was so fun to watch him! So, we had a pretty fun day!Today, we are taking a break from Disneyland. Robert is flying in today and we are headed to LA for a Dodgers Playoff Game. All the boys absolutely love going to a game at Dodger Stadium. Part of us hopes they do not lose and most of us doesn't care....we are just excited to go! GO DODGERS!
