Ears Pierced!

 
 
 
 
I caved in! She's only 8 and I let her do it. Rob said we should just let her, what was the big deal. But I cried. My little girl is growing up too fast! Anyways, she LOVES them! and she looks adorable too!

Jacob's first Football Game! Cougars vs. Calabassas

 
 
 
 

Jacob's first football game was today. Last Thursday, he hurt his shoulder, and when he woke up this morning he wasn't feeling so well. His body was achy, and he had a fever. So we did what any good parent would do.....we gave him motrin and told him to get out there and play! He did pretty good, and made a couple of good tackles! He is playing first string corner.....not bad for his first time ever playing. He is about half the size of the other kids on the team. He is 85 pounds, compared to others who are 125! Word is that he is one of the hardest hitters on the team! Must be all that practice wrestling with his older brother! We are proud of you Jacob!

Happy 40th Birthday Rob!

 
 
 

Well, I don't think Rob was too happy about this birthday! 40 is a big one! Not to mention it falls on September 11th. I tried my best to make it as special as I could! We went to lunch with the girls from the office, I got him tickets to a concert, cologne, buttered popcorn jelly bellies (his favorite!) and lots of hugs and kisses from the kids. We ended the day with dinner at The Social with friends. It was such a nice evening..........we are so grateful for wonderful friends to share this day with!

Office Party for Rob

 
 
 
 
Rob's office decided to get in on the fun and decorate his whole office for his 40th birthday. They took Rob to El Trocadero and Megan and I invited ourselves! The girls got him a gift certificate for a much needed massage at the Paseo Club. Kimberlee made him a cake too! Thanks girls for lunch!

Sweetness!

My Beef!

 
 
 
 

Cooper and Megan

 
 
 
 
This is our adopted dog Cooper. He comes to our house every morning, and his owner has to pick him up every night. I'm not sure they are very happy about that, but we love him here. He is OBSESSED with playing catch. He will find a ball and drop it at your feet, and he is relentless, he will keep dropping it at your feet til you throw it. We have resorted to throwing it down the steepest part of our hill, and making him run after it. We do that a few times, and that is the only thing that wears him out. Megan loves Cooper, and it was one of her first words. She stands at our front window and says Coopie. I love that picture of Cooper looking at the camera, its kinda Gene Simmons-ish don't you think!
