Because They're Cousins



There's nothing quite like an action song about a deadly disease
to brighten up a trip to the park.


We all fall down!How morbid!








It's been great living so close to the other Somers'.








Raelin and Ryker are amazing.








First, let's talk about Ryker

Ryker has the cutest voice, gives great hugs and welcoming HELLO ANGELs!, and he's almost always happy.






Ryker and Liam get along well
because they're both kooky.

Of course, the fact that they have
the same interests sometimes poses
sharing problems, but you can't tell
that here can you?


Now, let's talk about Raelin.
With a vocabulary which rivals most adults, this smart, beautiful little girl
is a charmer!


Raelin rivals Ryker and Liam in craziness,















but always looks out for her little cousin's safety.
















Alright! Who's raising these tree huggers?


Look! Now they're forcing their wacko politics on innocent babies!


What kind of odd tree-ritual is this?


Who's responsible?

"Auntie Mo" of course, she's as far left as they come.See how they snicker over their subtly coercive techniques?


Such a Character

What a surprise, Liam loves sticks and rocks.
He would spend the entire day throwing them into the canal if ma and pa had the same attention span.


Cousin Renee very generously gives


Liam most of the rocks she collects, but here


she hefts a big one herself. Awesome!



















And now, for something completely different: a story unrelated to the pictures here included for your viewing pleasure...




Yesterday, Liam was playing cars with William on the floor. We wanted him to push his truck back to William, so we said, "Liam, roll the car to Daddy." He then picked up the truck, laid down on the floor, and proudly rolled himself over to Daddy. Like always, he knew he was being funny.

"Who? ME?"

The Dawning of a New Era

Digital proof that we exist may soon be on hand.

No guarantees.
