Greetings from the outskirts
of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA!
My mom was surfing the net and started shrieking from
the next room. I was sitting on the couch with my brother
and sister, watching tv with our mom's boyfriend, and
we wondered what all the commotion was about. When Mom
showed us, we ALL started shrieking! How exciting to
find our relatives all across the globe!
I just realized I haven't introduced myself. My name
is Ross Marcel Monkey, and I turned 12 in February.
I love to play the drums, and I am a baseball pitcher.
I also enjoy cooking...especially with bananas! (Banana
fried rice is my specialty.)
I have four siblings; two live with me, and two live
with our grandparents. We like to get together whenever
possible, and sometimes we visit each other for a few
weeks at a time. The rest of the gang is Mary Tyler
Monkey, age 11, (American) football player extraordinare
and fabulous pianist; Bradley Rosebud (Robert Oscar
Sam Edward Benjamin Ulysses David) Monkey, age 10, avid
fisherman and golfer and a quiet, gentle soul who plays
bass, banjo, and low brass instruments; Rose Marie "Rosie"
Monkey, age 10, fantastic ice skater, violinist,and
sweet and shy; and Ritchie Robin Monkey, age 9, a madman
on the basketball court and hockey rink and an awesome
guitarist.
I'll include a picture of us with our cousins. Left
to right, we are: Reese Simian, Mary Tyler Monkey, Ritchie
Robin Monkey, me (Ross Marcel), Bradley Rosebud Monkey,
Rose Marie Monkey, and Stanley Simian.
Take care,
Ross & the PA monkeys
