All quiet on the Western front. Not.

      Least you think that JimBob have been lounging around the pool with nothing to do, the truth has been far from that. The social scene here in "The Desert' has been active.

      A case in point: the Phillips families visit:  the Nor-Cal and So-Cal families arrived for the
weekend recently. Here we see JimBob with Allison Phillips (Mrs. So-Cal Phillips). We are at a late night hot spot partaking of after dinner drinks with the local hipsters.
      The interesting part was that the local hipsters were well into their seventies! Many 'cougars' were to be found stalking unsuspecting younger gentlemen. Hold on to your wallets and dentures fellows!
  
   
       We were ensconced at a table to the side of the action. We had a great time watching. A DJ played all the hits of the day, the day being 1968. Whatever. JimBob are pictured here with Mrs. Bree Phillips (Nor-Cal) and Bob's nephews John (far left) and James. Allison must have been surveying the action in the main party room. Brave girl.

     

 


      Looks like all the Phillips made it out of the club and safely home that night. Great looking couples I'd say.
      JimBob left early. Something about needing their beauty sleep.
Seriously?





  

       The next day it was party time at our house in Palm Springs. The Phillips' brought the kids over for a little pool party, complete with design-your-own-pizza lunch and ice cream sundae dessert.

   

      This photo at the left is of the girls. Where's Jack? Probably in the pool. Anyway, here we have (left to right) Madison, Paige, Kendall and Janey. We were celebrating birthdays for both Kendall and Paige, Eight years old and eleven.

      Wow, here is Kendall demonstrating her aquatic prowess. And Jack doing the same. Jack, being the youngest and only boy in the family gets major kudos. Go Jack, you rock!

       Pizza time! We set out all the ingredients and the kids went crazy.
Actually the adults did too. Jim was the oven-master and performed the baking honors. After lunch the kids introduced us to the Whip/Nae, nae. Bet you don't know what that is. Suffice to say it is a dance that came from the hottest video on the internet right now. We got lessons.


      Want to see our moves? Seriously? In your dreams.


      So the Phillips family visit was exciting. Palm Springs will never be the same. JimBob are recovering on the chaise lounges by the pool enjoying the quiet. Not for long though. There is a guys only party scheduled for next weekend! We are calling it 'Caribbean Night in da Desert'.
      And you thought nothing was going on out here in the West.
      Seriously?
