The weekend after the Tebow wedding the Davis/Smith wedding showers started. Talk about no break between these 2! Saturday August 28 Clayton's family friends threw them a couples shower in Lawton. It was a very nice shower (out by a pool w/ a fun little bar area) with lots of young couples. Very fun.
The night before we ventured to Lawton Chris and I went to see Mamma Mia here in Dallas. We were supposed to go on August 22 with the Jones clan, but I had brain fart and double booked that weekend (Tebow wedding was also that day). I really enjoyed it.
That night we also got to go to Addison to see Wally and his new apartment. It is always great to meet up with old friends.**Flash Forward to Labor Day Weekend**
Sooooo for a couple weeks my dad had been talking about us all going to Ruidoso for Labor Day. It wasn't until the week before that he called me asking if we'd rather go to Vegas. Hello!! Vegas? Duh! So we did it. We made a last minute, impulse, trip to Vegas.
While we were in Vegas we got to go eat at Nobu, Sushi Samba & Margaritaville and go see Jay Leno and Santana perform. We are so lucky to have such fun parents! 
On our first afternoon there I was walking through the lobby of the Palazzo (where we stayed) alone & lost searching for the way to the room. I finally gave up and went to the front desk to ask how the heck to get to the guest rooms. When they finally headed me in the right direction I got an awesome surprise... I ran smack into TORI SPELLING. No lie. She was walking through our hotel casino with her husband Dean (no Liam or Stella). I was in shock, but somehow managed to smile and say hello-- no picture, which I regret.Immediately I tell Chris, who doesn't really care for her. (I think this is because of all the old school 90210 I have been recording lately--whoop whoop Donna Martin). So I called my parents & to my disbelief my father doesn't believe me. He thinks I imagined seeing her or just saw a random girl that resembled her. Ughhh. I so saw her!! Later that evening when we were in the elevator I see it; a sign stating, "Palazzo Pool Party with your hosts Tori Spelling & Dean McDermott." Done and done. I was right. Dad was wrong. 1 point Shan, 0 Dad.

Chris got an interview! Chris got an interview! Friday September 11 Chris had an interview with Underwood Law Firm in Amarillo. Ahhhh Amarillo how I long to live in theeeee. It was a 4 hour interview followed by an informal cocktail hour at The Amarillo Club. To date we haven't heard back, but FINGERS CROSSED this will work out... but if it doesn't I KNOW things will be ok.
Going back for Chris's interview worked out perfectly for me. It was Canyon High Homecoming and Codi's first pep rally. I got to go watch Codi cheer at both the pep rally & the Homecoming game.
For Chris on the other hand, it was terrible timing. Chris and I drove to Canyon Thursday evening, he interviewed until 6 on Friday and then drove back to Dallas Friday night in order to make it to a negotiation competition that began at 7:30 AM on Saturday. Poor Chris!!
**Flash forward to September 18**
