The Roblees Tackle March and April

It's tax season folks, so the only good thing comin' your way right now is this Roblee update! Lucky you...

March and April have been thrilling months as we've participated in all sorts of fun activities. We've been visiting family, hanging with friends, running in races and crawlin' through doggie doors. Ok, that last part was just Dane. The first few pictures you see are just some random photos taken around here. We thought we'd share them to show some funny sides of Dane (I know, there are so few) and also to show you how big he's getting! 

Mike took Dane down to San Diego a couple of weeks ago to visit Ralph and Adele while I stayed up here to work. (I also happened to attend a 70's party thrown by my bro A.J...it's tough being me.) There are some great pictures of Dane at the Roblee house and at the beach with Daddy. He's just like Mike - he loves anything to do with "WALLAH," or water, that is. The ocean will probably be his happy place, which is fine by me:)

There are some photos from the 70's party at A.J.'s house. We all had a great time playing games all sorts. I think Mernie (Marianne) wins the prize for the best costume, though. It was so awesome! Plus, it was really easy to find her. Thanks, A.J. for throwing a great party!

We also had a great time running (but mostly walking) in the Santa Anita 5K on April 4th. Of course, there was free beer afterward, so that was a nice incentive. Mike actually ran ahead and did it in 23 minutes, and that was after he and I ran 5 miles TO the race! Brian followed behind him at 33 minutes...you go guys! Moggy and Colleen also ran it, but the 5K was just a "warm up" for the rest of their training they had to do that day for the L.A. Marathon coming up in May. Moggy thought she'd just pick up her 1st place medal at the 5K before heading out to finish their training. Sigh...Moggy, just slow down a little, wouldjya?

I uploaded a few pretty cute videos on You Tube this month. I think there are 6 new ones since last time. There are links to the left of this post, or you can click here to see all of them. If you've got time to kill at work, or you just love us enough to watch, they're pretty entertaining!

We love you all and hope you have a wonderful Easter!


Dane was so tired after a night of watching "The Hills" that he fell asleep before I could get his pajamas on!

"We've goh a Danish DEWN!"

Hi. This is my bathroom.

This is our little UPS man listening to AJ's band play in the pool house. He was absolutely enthralled and would not move from that spot for a good 15 minutes.

"Are you guys hearing this?"

Here is Dane crawling through the doggie door at the Roblee's house. Gizmo is saying, "Um, can you please get out of my way? DOGS ONLY!"

"I'm going around the other side!"

"HERE I AM!"

Mike took Dane to the beach to dig in the sand. 

There's the WALLAH!




My heart melted...

Here is Kristy, holding Dane, holding Kassady. PRICELESS!

Mernie, looking ever so stylish in her 70's get up.

It's 5K time. Mernie was late, so we had to make her catch up with us! It was pretty easy since we were going about -4 MPH.

I think Kimmy scared this guy...

Look at those socks!

We're on our way...

A job well done!

It's........so.........cold.......

At the finish line!

There's Moggy with her award:)

Moggy and Colleen. You can go train now!


51 minutes?! Thanks a lot for making us wait, MERN!
