First was the Football game: The kids in the band just had such a great time. Since the football game was held on Friday (Halloween) they let the band dress in costumes. Jake wore Jim's Pimp costume from Mardi Gras. You could see him from across the field without any problems, he is the one in the flaming Yellow/Green Coat. You might have to watch the video a couple times to see all the fun outfits.
Second was after work on Saturday: I went to the Mall to pick up something real quick from William Sonoma (which they didn't have). When I was there, I noticed that Tim Gunn from Guide to Style and Project Runway was going to be in Macy's @ 1:00pm. So I went to check it out. It turned out that he was hosting a Fashion Show @ Macy's . So I called Erin right away, so she could get to the Mall to see him. I was standing in line and started talking to the women around me. Long story, but one woman actually had 2 tickets for seats in the show and invited me to sit with her. So I got to view the show (seated). Erin got there pretty late but she was able to see the show from the back. At the end of the show he did a Q&A session which was funny. It was great to see him up close. I did get some pictures but on my cell phone and I can't figure out how to download them.

MHS Homecoming! Jake's date is his girlfriend, Emily. He took her to a nice Chinese Restaurant prior to the dance. Erin and her date, boyfriend Michael. Went to the Lakefront with friends to take pictures then to dinner @ Semolina's. Both got home late (dance ended @ 12:00). I haven't gotten the details but Jim said that Jake had a great time. But got the feeling that Erin wasn't as thrilled with Homecoming. She went to an after party and I won't tell you what time she got in. All I can say is thank God we live in a small town and she never has to travel too far.
