That was the rare conjunction of the crescent moon and Venus. You will be able to find a lot of discussion on that to include some pictures. There is a pretty good one Here (http://cs.astronomy.com/asycs/forums/p/25742/342502.aspx#342502) Scroll down to the post by maryccc and you will see the shot she took of it last night. In a couple more nights the moon will be next to Saturn.

Every night you see a bright star near your moon what is it?

Since the Moon moves across the sky about 12 degrees per night, there will be no bright star near the Moon "every night". Last night (September 11, 2009) the Moon was fairly close the Betelgeuse, the red giant star at the shoulder of Orion. Tonight, September 12, 2009, the Moon will be very near the planet Mars. Both have a similar reddish color to them.
