40% Steve

Friday night, Nana watched the kids so that Matt and I could see my brother play at the Vogue. It was an early show so it worked out perfectly since I had to work the next day. We hadn't heard them for a while and they were great! Here is a clip of them playing one of my favorites. If you haven't seen them, click on the link in my blog list to see where they play next. You won't regret it!

Oktoberfest 2008

Sunday we ventured to the Oktoberfest at the state fair grounds. We almost boycotted since it used to be held directly across the street from our neighborhood, but the prospect of a good german ompah band and brats couldn't keep us away. Grant was a major terror this weekend with 4 teeth coming in (molars included) and was fussy, but we still braved it. Overall, it was fun. Matt enjoyed the beer, I enjoyed the wine, Jackson and Mia danced the night away, and Grant and Liam survived it all. Auf wiedersehen to you all.

They say its your birthday..

Matt turned the big three-zero on Monday. I would have posted a picture of him with his cake, but he refused (party pooper!). I am happy that we are now the same age because he has been calling me his "old lady" since I turned 30 in January. Now he is telling me that since I will be 31 in 5 months, his age is still better since I will be IN my thirties and he will JUST be 30. What a little stinker! I know he is just kidding, but come on dude:). I think he had a good day. He slept in, saw a movie with his wife, and had Mexican for dinner. Happy Birthday to my wonderful husband!

Jackson's 1st Day of Preschool



Jackson started preschool today! He was fine to leave me, but was also excited to see me when I came to pick him up. He didn't give me much info about the day except for that he made a Fruit Loop necklace, drank a green drink for snack, and sang a song with his name in it. He said he wants to go back on again so he must have had a good time. When we took him to school, Mia put on her little backpack also (which she never uses) just because Jackson did. She really wanted to go also and asked where Jackson was several times while he was gone. It was so cute. I will have to remember these moments when they are yelling at each other later:).

Keep checking the blog over the next week as I have many fun things to post (pictures and videos)!!
