Rob's birthday was over a week ago, but I failed to give him a shout out. So...
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ROB!!!
We love you! 
For a while, we got to have him home a lot, and we loved this. Since we bought our new house, he spends an awful lot of time over there fixing it up. We miss having him around so much, but are very grateful for all the work he is putting on our new place. He is definitely a man of many skills, talents and great vision.
Why I love Rob:
He makes me laugh.
He's not afraid of hard work, or a big project.
He is so smart, and is always learning.
He's a great dancer.
He makes me awesome things- like furniture!
He's a great Dad. Our kids adore him!
He loves me.
His smile brightens my day.
He can be so silly, though it's a side of him that very few get to see.
He's my best friend.
The list could go on and on...
The kids love him because:
He plays with us.
He does such silly voices when he reads to us.
He loves to tease.
He loves to wrestle with us.
He takes us to Jazz games.
He works hard for us.
A few weeks ago, I took Nathan to a Jazz game. We had a great time with just the two of us. Nate informed me however, that "it's more fun to go with Dad, because Dad will run with me." (Sorry bud, but I'm not up to running from the car to the arena with my big belly and no sports bra.) I'm bet I'd get a similar response from Sarah as well. Her dad gives her piggyback rides to the arena. I'm sure he's more liberal with the flow of candy and treats than me too. Let's just face it, he's more fun than me. Love ya, mijn lievert!
Snoopy is my other Webkinz.
All my webkinz are the best.
I made this background.
The kids had so much fun beating up poor Po. It was a riot. We laughed and laughed the whole time. It was well worth all the time and effort.
Since it was dark outside, and we didn't have a place to hang it inside, Rob hung it off the end of a broom handle. Dangerous job! This is Sarah just realizing that she'd been punching her Dad instead of Po.
Here are the kids laughing about Sarah punching Rob. I love Erin's face! Luckily Sarah's not very good in the punching category. It was so funny though. She loves telling people about it.
Ryan is a Kung Fu master! He did a lot of damage to poor Po. Po took it all like a champ, always with that same silly grin.
Adam was a bit shy about hitting Po.
The kids with big enough heads got to wear the "Pandana" as a blind fold. Nathan got it from saving tokens on cereal boxes.
He loves his Webkinz Yorkie. He made this "cowboy hat" to match the one he bought for Dr. Fluff (his Yorkie) on Webkinz World. Even though it looks more like a top hat, it's cute!
