well over the last few weeks the coles have celebrated halloween, mom had a girls trip, a family outing or two , a baby shower, a wedding shower {or two}and added a new family member...dont get to excited its not what you think....
i will try and be brief, but you know how i am... i'll do my best...the boys had such a super halloween weekend. i hosted airey's 3K preschool party the wednesday before halloween and came as tony romo and boy did airey just light up. he is completely obsessed with him and talks about him non-stop, oh you think im exaggerating....NON STOP....by the way we have officially entered the 20 questions portion of airey's life and it is daunting....we have 100 questions to every single observation or task...our patience has officially been tested and we are trying our best to answer each and every question with a long responsive answer...but gheeesh. well anyway where was i...oh yes...so airey loved his school party! we then celebrated saturday at aunt katie and uncle ed's with lots of friends. the boys bounced in the bouncer in their costumes, which campbell was oozing fluff by the second. as for their costumes airey was batman at school, tomospider at pops and kitty's and finally spiderman at the actual trick or treat in the neighbor hood. campbell i decided was going as a deviled egg...we had thought piglet or something, but it just wasn't campbell, so i remembered this costume a guy wore to a party years back and he was a deviled egg. how perfect for cjc! as you can tell from his face when i put it on him....he was...well ...."devilish". i knew it was the perfect costume, hehe. all in all we enjoyed just being a family for the weekend. we carved pumpkins, toasted pumpkin seeds, made popcorn balls and trick or treated until 8:30. boy what a holiday! such a fun one for all of us. mom and dad got in on the halloween action at Kim and Kevin's costume shower hosted by the wedding party. Rog and I love Mad Men, so decided to go as Don Draper and Megan. I think we nailed it! Rog was such a good sport as i told him i was going to dye his hair for authenticity...well "just for men" doesn't wash out as i had hoped....so he has a little skunk do , but i think we are one haircut away from ditching the black.
mommy got away for my annual girl's alluvian trip and all of us ladies had a fabulous time. we did the spa all day including having our make up done. we felt like princesses...or sheba's as roger calls me ;). we had a great time laughing and catching up and feasting on yummy food and drinks at Gardenia's. that trip is such a perfect girlfriends getaway and i treasure those girls and the time and memories we get to make together {even the jason shelby odds}.
this past weekend we celebrated again with kim and kevin at a Las Vegas party hosted by the families. they had bartenders,craps and a roulette wheel...mastered by the "man in white" aka Terry the mayor cole. we are so excited for kev and kim and are looking forward to the january nuptials! another fun celebration was Saturday afternoon as me and the girls hosted a baby boy shower for my dear friend kim. the beauty shop was the perfect place for our chic mama. im so excited for her and nate and know she will be an amazing momma! sunday we had a laid back family day that started with church and then three little pigs for lunch {yum} and then rog suggested we take the boys bowling. OH what fun....it was great to have something that we all could do together and take turns :) the boys cant wait to go again. we got home and watch the cowboys resurrect themselves {thanks goodness jerry finally fired wade} and my sweet hubs grilled me a steak and we had a date night in...perfect end to a perfect weekend
