Catching Up

Sorry I haven't really blogged much lately. Last week I was completely exhausted and had a killer headache for most of it as well, so I feel like I'm just now coming back to earth. Not a whole lot has been going on in our household, but I'll post some of the highlights (in no particular order, as they come to mind)...

Today: Took Abby to school so Aaron could sleep in a bit. Abby had kind of a rough morning. She really did not want to go to school today. That was a first. There was much crying when I dropped her off. Stopped by Jason and Natalie's on the way home and hung out for a bit so the boys could play. That was fun. Got home and decided we should go to Starbucks with the awesome gift card Natalie gave me -- what a delicious treat! (We discovered yesterday that they'll even do little kid sized iced chais and the kids were thrilled!) Then we came home and while Carson took a nap, Aaron and I took up playing Mario Kart again. :) He beat me today, but it's just because I'm a little rusty. Ha!

This Weekend: We didn't do a whole lot... which was awesome! Aaron was off on Friday. We took it easy and had Texas Land and Cattle for lunch (thanks to an awesome family in our church!). Yum! I had a short one hour wedding on Saturday at the Inn, but other than that, we just sat around and read, watched TV, and hung out all weekend. Aaron let me have the remote Friday night and he watched several hours of Say Yes to the Dress without even complaining! Also made significant progress through The Count of Monte Cristo. And of course yesterday we went over to Bill and Sandy's for our weekly Sunday dinner and had lots of fun and laughs as always. :) I need to start taking my camera over there and getting pictures.

Last Week wasn't super eventful (see above regarding the headache, sleepiness, etc.), but I will say that I LOVE LOVE LOVE the rain! It rained pretty much all week and it was awesome. I'm starting to think that pleasant weather might actually be possible here. Also had the chance last week to hang out with good friend Amanda and help her paint her daughter's room. It was a lot of fun, actually, and painting is always more enjoyable when you have a friend to share it with! :) Oh, and our small group started meeting again after taking a break for the summer. I really missed our group over the summer and I'm really excited to be back together again with some new faces! I'll try to post pictures of that crew sometime soon too.
I didn't mean for this post to be this long. Sorry to bore anyone who might be reading this! :)
