Oh hello. Today Ella went to her first day of Pre-K (here's a sneak peak picture)! With only one child at home, who naps in the morning, I found myself wandering aimlessly around my house at 9:30am, amidst deafening silence wondering, "What. Do. I. Do?"
I considered my options. Fold laundry. Sweep. Mop. Organize. Clean bathrooms. Watch TV. Read. Then I realized I haven't blogged all summer. And so here I am. Perhaps in these rare down times I shall have time to catch up with all my photos and such!
SUMMER. WAS. CRAZY. I just looked back at my calendar and there was not ONE weekend that wasn't booked with something! Here is the quick and dirty run-down!

CRAZY! It was packed with friends, and lots and lots of family which is the way we like it! It was busy, but in a fun, kickin' it kind of busy way. I shall miss it, but I am also welcoming the new routine and rhythm that the school year brings. The crispness in the air that beckons in fall. These things, they are good for my soul!

Awesome! Happy to see Ella's face there. :) You've inspired me to try blogging again...it's been so long. :) (I think I set my standards too high, waiting till I have something profound... HA.)
