Weekend Fun
We have had such a great weekend. Here I am with mom's pumpkin display. I am so handsome....

I got to hang out with my friend Marleigh Saturday night at my first Halloween Costume Party. Marleigh and I go way back, we used to walk at Memorial Park together when our mommies were on maternity leave together...
Stay tuned for my trick or treating pictures

Compass Halloween Party
I have a problem. I admit it-- I love holidays. I love everything about them--decorating, spending time with family, getting time off from work--really, what's not to like?! I convinced Jason to let me throw a Halloween party for our wonderful Sunday School Class. If you watch Modern Family then you can appreciate how I wanted to decorate but Jason has his limits and vetoed the fog machine, coffin and scary sounds from the front porch. However, I think it was still a huge success. Here is the wreath I made:
My front porch:
Living room:
Special punch:
Drink station:
The oreo bar:
Dining room table:

Monday night Halloween goes down and Thanksgiving goes up! This is seriously the best time of year!
Drink station:
Monster Invades St. Luke's Pumpkin Patch
NEBRASKA!
Two weekends ago Jason and I took a weekend trip to the exciting state of Nebraska. Jason's agency won a contest and so we got a free weekend away. We went to cheer on the Longhorns and it worked. Grammy was nice enough to come in for the weekend to take care of this little fan...
Nebraska has a neat tradition--the first time they score a point they release red balloons:

If I could figure out how to turn this picture I would...
We had a wonderful weekend. The Nebraska fans could not have been nicer--we tailgated with them before the game and they introduced Jason to "elk water." After the game we enjoyed a great dinner at Misty's where I got to eat dinner with a television star. Okay, maybe star might be a little overstated--Ethan, the dad from Quints by Suprise, ate dinner with Jason and I. We shared a table with a bunch of people to save on wait time. I was starstruck and Jason made fun of me the whole time. I did ask him how on Earth he left his wife at home with all of their kiddos--and I made him promise that she was going to get a weekend away soon!

10 Months Old!
Yesterday my love bug turned 10 months old! You can see that he is a tall baby and starting to look more like a little boy than a baby! I have no idea what his official stats are but he is getting heavy to carry around. He is still army crawling--I don't think he will ever crawl up on his knees--and he pulls up on EVERYTHING. He still loves to be held and would be perfectly content if we would carry him everywhere. We have discovered an area of Memorial Park with swings that are perfect for Davis, he loves to be outside.Happy 10 months Davis monster!

NEW YORK CITY
Jason was sweet enough to allow my mom and I to head to NYC for a few days. Mom and I enjoyed our fourth annual trip to our favorite island. We shopped, shopped and shopped. We fit in a couple of shows--we saw Phantom of the Opera and A Little Night Music. I thought Phantom was fantastic, I could have lived without Night Music. 
I feel like we wait all year to go on this trip and then we blink and it is over! Can't wait for next year....
