attempt #3

I am a terrible blogger...my last post was on july 30th. fail. Here goes attempt #3 at being consistent...mostly because i am thinking about christmas cards and i intend on putting this blog address on them so that our friends and family who are far away and not on FB can keep up with our lives :)

So, welcome to our Fall of chaos. Since returning from MN we have hit the ground running-justin has been out to the deer lease 3 times (he's a lucky man to have a wife who agrees to this), he ran GoRuck (a 14 hour adventure you will have to ask him about) and he is preparing for next weekends tough mudder race. I on the other hand made a trip out to west texas to visit family and have been consumed with a huge project going on at work. Hunter started pre-school at the end of August (AHHH! how is he old enough for real preschool?!?!) and is absolutely LOVING it. he comes home with stories about his new friends, the things he is learning and utterly exhausted :) Judah is LOVING that he has gigi days all to himself since hunter and kate have both started school. He has never had much alone time with any adults since he is the 2nd son and the 3rd grandchild, so the first couple of alone days were kind of lonely for him but now he loves having gigi (and poppi too some days) to himself :)

Fall has finally arrived in central texas-i think. we hit a record number of 92 (i think thats the most recent number) days over 100 degrees and 136 or 137 CONSECUTIVE days over 90. it has been a brutal summer. we have a deficit of over 22 inches of rain and the landscape is brown. here's to hoping we just dumped on this winter.

Perhaps i will be back in a few days to write some more, or perhaps it will be several months...
