Big Love

Jacob worked on the HBO show Big Love today. Even though it was just under 100 degree in Agua Dulce, his costume was long pants and a long sleeve dress shirt - buttoned to the neck! But, as you can see, he didn't have it as bad as his on screen family members. All of the women were in layered long skirts, with long sleeves and buttoned collars!

Although it was hot, Jacob had a good time.

Jennie's 1st Dance Recital


We just got back from Jennie's 1st Dance Recital. Jennie danced in two numbers; one ballet and one tap. She did an AWESOME job! Here are a couple of pictures - sorry their a bit blurry, we were asked not to use flash. Also, the dance school had the program video taped, and we'll be getting a DVD in the next week or so, and I'll put up a clip of Jennie.

Mad Men (or "Man, those shorts are SNUG!")


On Tuesday, Jacob worked on the show Mad Men, a drama about ad men from the 1960's. Jacob was part of a scene that takes place at a country club (the Griffith Park Golf Club Clubhouse) in 1962. Jacob was decked out in the trendy fashions of the time...

'Snug' doesn't begin to describe his swim suit!

Jacob had a blast, and got a couple of great pictures to remember the day.

Science Olympiad

Late last week, our friend Ricky Meyers asked if Jacob wanted to participate in the Palmdale School District Science Olympiad. Ricky said that he had a last minute drop out, and wanted to know if Jacob was up to stepping in at the last minute. Jacob said o.k. and had two practices before yesterday's competition. Oh, and one other thing...the competition is open to 4th thru 6th graders, so Jacob (and his friend Molly, Ricky's daughter) had to fib a bit and say they were 4th graders (not 3rd!)

Jacob had fun and competed in paper rocket building and in barge building. His team won a silver medal, and the other Ocotillo team won a gold!
