~Adam Turned 30!!!~

So Adam turned 30 on Sunday, even if he doesn't want to admit it.  We celebrated on Thursday by going to the Kenny G concert at the Tim's Toyota Center.  It was so much fun!  We got there early enough to meet Kenny G and have him sign our t-shirts that we bought.  When Adam handed Kenny G his shirt he said, "I'm your biggest fan!"  He was grinning from ear to ear...it was so cute!  Because we bought 2 shirts, we were entered into a drawing to win a saxophone that was designed by    Kenny G, and if you won, you got to go up on stage and he would play a song on it and then you get to take it home.  Well, Adam spent the ENTIRE night thinking that he was going home with the sax, but in the end, we were two numbers off.  
Aside from meeting Kenny G, Adam's favorite part of the night was when the concert started and Kenny G played the sax right next to Adam.  Our seats were on the isle and Kenny G stood right in front of Adam and played for a couple of minutes!!!  It was really neat and a memorable way for Adam so celebrate such a memorable day!

~First Day of School~

So this morning Nikolas and Riley went back to school! We woke up early and went to get donuts for breakfast, just Mom and the boys...Dad had to leave early for Phoenix. I can't believe that I am at home with 1 child. I was really looking forward to school starting, but it has only been an hour, and I already miss the boys; I can't wait for them to come home.
Riley asked me who I was going to sneak off to Panda Express with now that he was in school. Last year it was our tradition to go get lunch after I picked him up fom Pre-School. Hopefully Nate is up for lunch with mom!
I can't believe that Riley is in Kindergaten...I am always amazed at how the time flies! Riley is buying lunch from the cafeteria today...he wanted to be a big boy like Nikolas and buy lunch, so we'll see how it went when he gets home.
Isn't Nikolas quite the picture taker ?!?!?!? He is in class this year with most of his friends and a few girls from last year. YIKES!!!! Nikolas went to class today without even looking back at me to say bye, he is too independent for his mom...I needed one extra hug!
What a big boy sitting at his desk. I was a bit nervous leaving him because I didn't know if he would breakdown and start crying, but he was so good. Me, on the other had, well I got to my car and cried!
These are a couple of Nikolas and Riley's friends, Koby, Billy and Cameron (the little one who thinks he's ready for school). Koby and Nikolas are in the same class and Billy and Riley are in Kindergarten together, but have different teachers.

~Off to BIKE NIGHT!~

OK, so Saturday night Adam and I went to our last Sport-bike Night of the Summer at Buffalo Wild Wings. We met up with some of our riding friends and had dinner...it was a lot of fun. Adam had a lot of fun being around his "PEOPLE", while I was just happy to go for a ride. We decided to take a few pictures before we left to remember the night until next Summer, when all heck breaks loose again!
Adam wants me to learn how to ride and get a bike of my own, but I like to just sit behind him and relax.

Doesn't Adam look GOOD?!?!?!

OFF WE GO!!!
