A Laugh Caught on Tape

I finally captured Raif laughing while I had my camera ready. Sorry about the sideways thing again, but he was on my leg and you gotta do what you gotta do. We were watching Max and Ruby, a show about two bunnies on Noggin, and Max was being "Super Bunny." Raif thought "Super Bunny" was funny!

A Dog's Life

Boomer didn't think he was getting enough "blog time," so he has developed a habit of sitting up on the couch in the upstairs playroom in hopes of getting an "I'm so cute" picture on the blog.

My mom bought a Moroccan cooking class at an auction for the Long Beach Public Libraries last June. We finally got around to making the date for our Moroccan extravaganza. And what an event it was. Our host, Leslye lives up in Palos Verdes with a beautiful view. We learned how to cook baklava, so scrumptious! We also learned how to make a delicious carrot salad, eggplant appetizer and a to die for chicken. We drank a traditional style tea when we got there, but if you know us we eventually busted the wine out!!! It was a great afternoon and we thank Leslye for being such a great host. She even offered to donate another cooking class for this years auction for the Libraries. The event will be on June 28 at the Latin American Museum of art. Visit the website if you are interested: http://www.lbplfoundation.org/programs_ge.html

I am helping again this year with securing auction items and would love to know if anyone has any donations.

Still Trying!!

Compliments of Bailey's photography.
Boomer's even tired after trying to get Raif to roll over!!

Can you tell we had an uneventful week!!! Although, that is nice sometimes.

Happy St. Patrick's Day

Raif and our Irish princess

I bought an adorable shamrock shirt for Bailey to wear on St. Patrick's Day, but all she wanted to wear was her Irish princess crown. I think the cute t-shirts for every holiday might stop at

age 3. Although, if it were a cute dress she might have worn it.
