Big Rob is…

…16! Yeah...I know, I'm asking myself the very same thing. How did this happen, where did the time go? As they say it (time) flies by when you are having fun and this fun loving boy's life is passing so quickly before our very eyes and we can't do anything to stop it!

Although it was a low key b-day for him the celebrations began last night at B12. Randy bought him a cake and after bible study we all sang Happy Birthday to him and enjoyed yummy cake.

The next night on his actual birthday the Frontera dinner tradition continued. It wasn't our typical b-day dinner, with a larger than normal guest list, but none the less, those closest to him were there and we were thankful they joined us.

His birthday is during a very busy time for all, you know just after Thanksgiving and before Christmas, so trying to put things together usually just don't happen without some planning and well since there was not planning there was no BIG super 16th celebration.

As with any other day this time during the year even those in our family have very busy schedules. Robert had football practice till late as usual, I had a Mom's Huddle meeting, lil Raymond had finals at school, and Big Raymond was working late. So needless to say, it was a late dinner.

Stacy & Brandon joined our family of five and although we were all tired, we enjoyed each other's company and caught up on what everyone is up to. It was a good night and great dinner!

Making that all important wish and blowing out his candles!

Came home to find a gift from his brother and Heather, yeah they love him.
Just in case he needs help, Em is there to show him how it's done...opening presents that is.
Should have known...he loves Blink 182, me on the other hand, I'm not too sure about that band.
lil Ray and Em...we just can't seem to get her to hold still for a good pic.

Rob and Em...she loves her brudder and yeah, he loves her too.
Estas son las mañanitas, que cantaba el Rey David, Hoy por ser día de tu santo, te las cantamos a ti, Despierta, mi Roberto, despierta, mira que ya amaneció,
Ya los pajarillos cantan, la luna ya se metió.
Que linda está la mañana en que vengo a saludarte, Venimos todos con gusto y placer a felicitarte, Ya viene amaneciendo, ya la luz del día nos dio, Levántate de mañana, mira que ya amaneció.
