First weekend of November

We had a really nice weekend. Melissa and I saw Putnam County Spelling Bee at the Boulder Dinner Theatre on Friday night. Our friends watched Dylan and we took their two kids. Not a bad trade off!

On Saturday we fed Dylan rice cereal for the first time - and no, he does not feed himself. He did pretty well overall with the rice cereal, a big improvement from when we tried it two days earlier.

We then spent a sunny afternoon at Folsom Field watching the Buffs win a dramatic game 35-34 over Texas A&M. It was a great victory and the Buffs finally showed some signs of enthusiasm and talent. Dylan should feel pretty lucky as the Buffs are 2-1 in the games he's attended. Not too bad for a team that has only won 3 games in 9 tries!

Halloween, a week late!

Dylan had a great first Halloween! He dressed up as the 'Bird-man' (aka Chris Andersen) of the Nuggets. With his natural mohawk and blond hair it was a natural choice for Halloween.

Here are a few photos of Halloween weekend:

We did it!

Moving in with someone can be interesting. I have several friends that have moved in with someone very special over the past few months. Of course, this deserves some further discussion.

And today I was thinking about what my old Indian friend use to give me in terms of love life advise: He would always say Let me tell you a story about "never". Well, it turns out that wise man was not quite accurate when it comes to relationship advise for others. Never is not the way to go so more power to those taking the plunge.

So sit back, relax and enjoy the ride....

Nate's tipping one back for you!

So, I have heard some interesting tidbits about things to keep in mind when you move in with someone for the first time. Of course I wrote something similar to this last year (and at this point my dad has probably thrown something at his computer and will be calling me for pictures of his grandson - but I digress) so it got me thinking.

Here are some things to keep in mind:
- Evidently you should keep an extra role of TP hidden somewhere in the house.
- Hide your "stash" of personal items you had while single.
- Keep the toilet seat down.
- Don't jump in bushes or moon pizza parlors (actually, maybe this works on second thought)

- Be careful what kind of underwear you wear around the house.

- Be careful where you fall sleep

- And, most importantly, when you step in dog poop make sure not to wear your shoes into the house. Like I nearly did today.

I'm not sure there is any secret to it or if this advise was really worth dispensing. But I will say life is fun and always finds ways to keep you on your toes. Best of luck, congrats and remember to enjoy everyday!!

And if necessary... go back to New York and play Beirut on Star's rooftop. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.
