Fall Happenings

This post is long overdue as we have been so busy enjoying the fall here. Our most exciting news is that we have a new four-legged edition to our little family. After months of Dexter begging us for a buddy, we finally gave in. Cooper is now five months old and has turned out to be just as much fun for us as he is for Dexter.

All four of us had an excellent Halloween. Thanks to Steven's mom, Dexter got to wear a pumpkin muscle shirt and Cooper was Frankenstein.

We were lucky enough to get to go a great costume party with our friends, the Carters, and thought that going as Flo and the Caveman was only appropriate:


For our five year anniversary we went out West to see my brother Daniel and Lelia get married. It was a beautiful day and a nice trip where we were able to see all of my family and one of my best friends.


And of course I have to brag about my newest cutest niece, Jenny.

This month I was absolutely spoiled with a perfect New York birthday. We went to the City the Saturday before my birthday where I was able to take dance classes. I had an opportunity to take a class taught by contemporary dancer, Will Wingfield, who you might know as a finalist from SYTYCD Season 3. It was awesome. After the classes, we walked around in the City's first snowfall of the season. We saw the tree at the Rockefeller Center and the windows at Macy's. Then Monday night, we spontaneously celebrated again on my actual birthday. We walked the Brooklyn Bridge and ate brick oven pizza at Grimaldi's. I couldn't have asked for a better birthday. We are now getting ready for our first snowy winter together!
