We all went ice skating at the Ice Park in Fredericksburg. We had a blast. It was Rachel's 1st time and she was a pro. She just took off. I love to ice skate. It reminds me of when I was little. We use to do it all winter long on the Sandusky River.

Girls just want to have fun! Dad being a good sport while the girls give him a make over.

Scott Riley the science guy. The dry ice experimenrt. The kids really thought that it was coooooool!! 

This was New Year's Eve 2004. The kids are getting a little silly. It must have been all of the pear cider that they drank in their champagne glasses. 2004 was a great year for the Riley's. 

Christmas morning 2004. Looks like the kids were good this year! 

This is Mitchell's baseball party for the Fall season of 2004. He is receiving his trophy from Barry the manager and his Dad the coach. Mitchell had the highest batting average of the whole team. 706!

FIRST DAY OF SCHOOL!!!!! Mitchel started Middle School so he leaves earlier than the girls. Jessica(5th) Rachel (1st) at the house before heading down to the bus stop. The girls getting ready to get on the bus and them heading to school!!! Hooray----peace and quiet now---no fighting! 

Jessica's party with the family. Mitch and Rachel are opening their gifts from Grandma and Grandpa Riley. They always send a present for the other kids! Isn't that very thoughtful and sweet of them. Jessica with her new bike(with gears!!). 

Jessica's 10th Birthday. This is the party with her friends. I took them to get manicures and pedicures. I made her gym-monkey cake.
