Scarlett in the city

Scarlett had a few days off school so our pal Ben took her to the city one day to the museum. He also bought her this cool water color set.

Twilight Autograph

I think I know more about Twilight than any grown man should. Our friend Jessica managed to score Scarlett an autograph from one of the actors in Twilight and she gave it to her as an X-mas present. A pretty cool gift. He wrote an age inappropriate message to my daughter and now I have to find him.

Cookie Party

Our friend Vanessa had a cookie party and Santa showed up. Finn was NOT happy to see Santa. She requested to keep him at a safe distance.

Kara and Puff have tea at a library

Kara took Finn to the teddy bear tea at the Tiburon library.

Grandpa Charlie is 90!

My Grandpa Charlie turned 90 years old so we headed back up to Paradise for his party. We'll take any chance we can to visit him. He's the best.

M'lady turns 35

First Haircut

We decided to give Puff her first haircut ever. She was looking like a ragamuffin or Spicoli so something had to be done. I voted for a Ramones window cut but Kara vetoed.

Breakfast with the Gepharts

We went to the I-talian Cottage and had breakfast with our buddies Ronnie, Heather and Nico. Puff and Nico had a pretty good time as you can see.

Thanksgiving 2009

Another Thanksgiving up in Paradise. Check out Kara's yummy green beans. My brother's gal Suzie made us get our family photo taken and despite our stubborn, bad attitudes, they turned out pretty well. See below. We visited my Grandpa and he let us taste some 182 proof grappa. It was like drinking kerosene. I included some photos of all the cool stuff inside his house.

Frida stencil

I don't think too many things are "perfect" but look how good this Frida stencil is that Scarlett made. She cut it out of paper with a razor blade and I think it turned out pretty awesome. I told her to "hit the streets" with it. She's too young for illegal street art but this thing needs to be seen!

Nov. 5th, 2009

On the morning of Puff's actual birthday I got up early and got her a special muffin. I do this for Scarlett too every year. I bought Kara a latte and spilled the ENTIRE cup in my Ranger on the floor. My truck smells like a butt turned inside out. I don't know what to do. I might have to throw it away. Conor came to dinner with us after his spandex boat class.
