Pepper - The WONDERful Dog

Last weekend the Roocke Family dog of 11 years passed away. Pepper was a great and loyal dog. She was in love with my father and the rest of our family. Anyone who knew Pepper had a bond with her. She had her special ways of saying hello and guarding her personal things. Pepper will be deeply missed and never forgotten.

Oh BOY!!

We have recently found out that Baby G will be a boy. No one was really surprised given the Gabel family history. We are both very excited and can't wait to meet him. Of course I have been looking at every baby boy necessity possible. From bedding to clothes to the little shoes he will wear. We will be going to Buy Buy Baby this weekend with my sisters and mother to start a registry (Ivan is going to join us for as long as he can take it!) I am SO excited!

Ally's 15th Birthday

Ally turned 15! She came into the city with Jenn and her friend Teresa and we all went to LIPS. LIPS is a Drag Queen restaurant. We had such a blast. All the Queens went aound and talked
to each table. When they got to our table and found out what we were celebrating they had Ally stand up and asked her some questions. After she told them she was 15 the Queen responded with "Suddenly I feel like MICHAEL JACKSON!" I think she was the youngest girl there.

We enjoyed the show and the company. It was a great night. Now we will just have to figure out how to top this for next year.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALLY!
