I Chug to the Zoo for a Halloween Party

 Hi there!

Guess who????

It's James from Thomas and Friends.  

And Bedtime Bear from the Care Bears!

(Actually, it's me Riley with my sister, Boo.

We're at the zoo and I'm looking for the tracks that lead to the candy!!!)

 Hmmmm... There doesn't seem to be any candy on this yellow submarine...

 Hey, T-Rex?

Can you move your foot?  

I think there might be lollipop under there....

 YABA-DABA-DOOOOOOOO!!!!

 Here we go, Dad!

I see some candy straight ahead!

 Now, this is what I'm talkin' about!

Check out the size of this lollipop!!!!!!!!

 Photo ops!

These 2 little pigs are afraid I'm going to blow their house down!

 I'm a GI James!

Riley and the 2 dwarfs....  

I think that sounds like a great movie title.

What a fun time trick or treating at the zoo!

It was awesome and now I'm all warmed up for the real thing!

GOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLL!

 Before every practice, 

I always go over some practice drills.

 Then we Blue Rays talk strategy with Coach.

Yellow cards are okay, but no red ones!!

 Game time!!!!!

The Blue Rays have the ball and we're running fast to the goal!

I shot and I scored!!!!!

Let's line it up again!

 

Blue Rays win!!!!!

We all line up, shake hands and say, "Good game."

Yep, it sure was a good game.... for the Blue Rays!!

I'm An Outdoorsman

Time to head outdoors for some last summer adventures 

before it's time to jump in the leaves!

Just a-swingin'....

Cheese!!!  I will RULE this playground!!!

Look, Mom!

Up here!  And I got here all by myself!

Now it's time to head out for Zoo adventures!

I love this pig!

I like this lizard too.  But I'll let Boo have the end with the teeth.

This zoo has everything!

I love to come here!

But the thing I love most about the zoo is checking out the animals with Dad.

I tell him all about them.

Good talk, Dad!

Let's do it again soon!

Deep Aquarium Fishing

Boo and I welcomed some new additions to our family!

Meet our fish!

I'm going to name mine Riley.

Dad poured our fish into the aquarium!

 They like their new home a lot.

Boo and I like their new home too.

And did you know that even Critter Cat likes the fish?

Welcome home, fishies!

I'm A Player

You know I'm a ball player!!

The other team always backed way up when I went up to bat!

And then when I ran the bases,

Boo and Dad were always there to give me a hug or high five.

I was a great outfielder, too.

Dad was always asking me for tips for how to get those ground balls.

Did you know that I even got a big medal for being such a good T-Ball player?

Yeah, sometimes it just doesn't get any better than medals and marshmallow treats!

Time to fuel up for a new sport now that T-Ball's done.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!

I'm really good at passing too.

I'm pretty excited about soccer season.

Time for a hands-in with the coach...

GO BLUE RAYS!!!!

My Summer Vacation... So Far

Pull up a seat and grab a popsicle.
I'll tell you about my summer vacation so far.


I've been hanging out with new friends...


Chowing down on cookies at Memaw's...


And chilling out at t-ball.


I drove the cars at Incredible Dave's with Grandad.


And went swimming with Mom and Dad and Boo.


I like to float.


Actually, we all like to float.


Plus I'm great at swimming.


I'm so good at swimming,
I can even tow Dad wherever he wants to go.


And swimming is even better with cousin James.


After all that swimming,
you may think I'd be tired of water.


But painting in the bathtub is almost as fun as swimming laps!
Yep, my summer vacation has gone great so far
and it's not even done yet!
