More birthday celebrations and Monday night tv!

We had a great weekend celebrating Nicholas' bday again with all of his family in town! As usual, the guys played a lot of golf and Jennifer and I got to do some shopping on Saturday (I practiced a lot of self control, unlike my former habits).  On our way to dinner Saturday night:

my sweet little man

...singin' a little song, haha :)

and presh cousin Gray!

We went to Coast and it was great! The fried okra salad (what? oxymoron? ha!) was definitely my favorite!

The Easterling boys!

so sweet!

Would you look at those crystal-blue eyes?!? Gorgeous!

cute family pic!

Kisses from Aunt Jesser! :)

Mills liked playing with cousin Gray's toy!

Our brief attempt at a family picture!

Adam and Aunt Kelley

Nicholas blowing out the candle on his double chocolate cheesecake..Mmmmmm!

(unfortunately I got crazy shadows on the pic, boo!)

Little Easterling family photo shoot while Nicholas went to get the car!

How cute are they?!?

The boys had a fun time playing together over the weekend, too!

This was right before bedtime, hence the pre-PJ nudie look!

Hehe, silly Millsy faces...

cousinly fun :)

Gray and Sister Reese

Mills was not ready for everyone to leave on Sunday morning!! :)

We had a great time!

And since it's Monday - aka best tv night ever - what are YOU watching this evening?!?

Lots of our favorite shows had their season premiere last week, and we're looking forward to the following:

How I Met Your Mother

Sooooo funny - this video is from one of my favorite episodes, haha, just to get us in the spirit! :)

Chuck

One of our top favorites! If you don't watch this, you should! :)

Castle - another favorite!

We also checked out The Event and Chase - two new shows - last Monday night (since 24 ended last season we needed some Monday night replacements, ha) and are hoping they'll be good.  We watched Flash Forward last season, but it wasn't renewed (so sad!), and it seems so similar to the plot of The Event...hmmm, we'll see. 

As for other nights of the week, I'm going to catch up on Glee (and hopefully talk Nicholas into it to) so we can get on board for this season.  We're also still watching The Mentalist and Criminal Minds - old ones but still good. We've kinda moved past NCIS this season. Oh, and we just caught the season premiere of Dexter last night on Showtime. This show is so twisted and crazy, but absolutely keeps you on the edge of your seat! I've heard such great things about Modern Family that I also want to catch up and get on board with that one, too (as if we need any more, right??)!  And we can't wait for the next season of Covert Affairs (hoping it will continue!)...too bad we have to wait until next summer! We DVR all of the shows though, so we can watch on our own time. Plus, we're spoiled now and like to fast-forward through the commercials!

What are you watching this season???
