The Roby Family

Jeffer turned three on the ninth.  We celebrated his birthday today with a small family party at our home.

I am lucky to serve as the Vice President of the Oklahoma Aquarium Foundation’s Board of Directors.  This weekend the Foundation hosted our largest fundraiser, Mardi Gras at the Oklahoma Aquarium.  MidFirst is kind enough to serve as a sponsor of the event in honor of my service to the Foundation.  The sponsorship allows Jenny & I to attend along with a group of guests.  This year we attended with a prospective client, his spouse, a business acquaintance of mine, his spouse and my colleague Chris Cardoni & his wife Meg (check our their family blog here).  Our guests left early so it provided us bank employees time to let it loose in the casino.  By bank employees I mean Jenny & Meg.

Chris & I donated our chips for the ladies use and they won all kinds of stuffed animals for their boys.  We didn’t get a lot of pics during the evening, but here are a few.  You get the idea.

We continued our six Christmas parties in five nights with a party at my office Saturday night.  Our office is on the corner of 4th & Boston Ave in downtown Tulsa and overlooks the route of Tulsa’s Parade of Lights.  The bank orders a bunch of pizza and everyone brings their families to enjoy the parade from the warm interior of the bank.

Jacob was not real intersted in sitting still why the parade was going by, but was interested in running around the bank and playing with whatever he could find.  Seeing a lot of computers turned off was an absolute nightmare for Jacob.  I think the blank, black screens were calling out to him to come turn them on and play.

On the other hand, Jefferson enjoyed standing still and watching the bands and colorful floats.  He sat or stood with my assistant Karen nearly the entire time and was very sad when Santa came by and the parade was over.
