Making Brock famous, our little STAR



I was recently was approached by a talent agent who represents children and she wanted me to bring in Brock to meet her boss.  After talking it over with Scott we thought it would be fun to see what would happen.  They took lots of head shots and have been sending us out for auditions,  Huggies was our latest attempt.  Brock is quite shy upon first greeting him and usually takes a while to warm up.  Brock is just 2 1/2 years old but he looks like he is 4.  I am thinking that he is at a disadvantage because they love if your child is outgoing and works well with strangers.  He literally clings to me when strangers talk to him and buries his face in my shoulder.  We are still having fun with it and getting him exposure so who knows!



This is the final head shot we chose to use

Happy New Year-2011


We started our New Years Eve day by meeting our friends the Quesada family out in Mission Viejo at Farrel's for ice cream.  Scott loves the nostalgia of Farrel's and not to mention the "icecream" too.  He ordered the Pigs Trough.  We were excited this year because we had purchased tickets to the O.C Fair Block Party.  The party offered live tribute bands entertainment by the decade – from the '60s to the '90s – plus DJs and karaoke. They also featured gourmet food trucks to satisfy every appetite. For the thrill-seekers there was a demolition derby.  We quickly dropped off the boy to the babysitter (grandparents for the WHOLE night).  We then went to our favorite local pizza joint The Haus of Pizza.  At the Block Party we mostly hung out at the 80's stage which was hosted by Richard Blade.  They featured Dead Man's Party (Oingo Boingo), Blasphemous Rumours (Depeche Mode),  Sweet & Tender Hooligans (Morrissey/ The Smiths).  I was glad the different stages were inside because it was COLD.  At midnight they had a quick firework show.  We had a fun night ringing in the New Year.
