Birthday Bash

We celebrated your 1st birthday in Nebraska with family and friends. Momma is exhausted from the fun filled weekend, the snow storm drive this morning (which was intense scary), and the 10 hour work day today. So here is a glimpse of the festivities:

Clinging to momma due to new environment/A LOT OF ADULTS

Getting ready to eat Valentino's Buffet

You love to watch Baby Einstein ("First Moves" & "First Signs) so we thought it was only appropriate to celebrate your b-day Baby Einstein style! I loved how the cake turned out.
More to come about your day:)

Dancin Dalmation

The Four Seasons

Halloween Day was another great day of festivities. We visited Grandpa King and Aunt Kayleigh, watched the Huskers barely take a victory, you dressed up as a Dalmation to hand out candy, and we tucked you in tightly with grandma & grandpa Dorsey. While you were sleeping...Daddy, Mommy, and your Aunties got all dressed up and headed out to a friends house for a Halloween Party. We stayed out late and had a rough go on Sunday due to the rockin time we had. You dad was the star of the night, brave enough to sing while the band jammed behind him. Hopefully you get those genes because momma can't carry a tune to save my life:)

Where the Wild Things Are

Hallo-eve we went to the bookstore Aunt Kate manages (Indigo Bridge Books) and joined in on there Where the Wild Things Are festivities/Halloween Party. There was story time, craft making, and a Wild Rompess parade. You were the cutest little chick and were waddling around checking out all the kiddos. Aunt Kate led groups on a parade through the building where we clapped, stomped, and roared. It was a fun time had by all. The night ended with Grandpa & Grandma Dorsey reading to you.

Go Big Red

Well Harper you are a husker fan by association. I attended the University of Nebraska-Lincoln making me a husker and therefore I project that on to you. If you are from Nebraska, 99 percent of the population are fanatic fans meaning they LOVE the Huskers. You dad falls into the 1 percent catagory, liking the Huskers but rooting for the Oklahoma Sooners instead. You will have to discuss that with him when you get older because I can't really explain it. He even bought a Sooners sun shade to go on the side window. The other weekend I was pulling into Lincoln and forgot that the sun shade was up for your protection. This guy pulled up next to me and started booing me. I figured it out, rolled down the window, and explained that in fact I was a Husker and my partner was a silly Sooner fan. He started laughing. See your dad is in deed from Lincoln, attended Nebraska Wesleyan, but somewhere along the way decided it was best to root for the Sooners. We are really hoping for a W on Nov. 7th when they play each other. I am not really a fanatic but I do indeed love a good Husker game. The feeling when you are in the stadium is quite amazing. I sometimes get all choked up with chills taking over my body. Same as when the cash cab contestents win double or nothing on the video bonus:)
GO BIG RED!!!!
