Fall



OK, so I haven't posted in a while. Maybe I've been trying really hard to wish the 'nice' fall weather to come back. After months of gorgeous 70 degree weather, BAM! A cold front rushed in bringing rain, wind and 40-50 degree coldness! And, it's blown lots of leaves off the trees. Humph!
Not much has happened lately.. I went back to Gig Harbor last month and had a girls weekend with my sister, sisters-in-law and mom.. I'm wating to get some pictures from everyone else since I didn't have my camera. Kurtis had it because he got lucky and was invited on a manly canoe trip for the same weekend! He'll have to post about that with his pictures. It was great to get away and see everyone. And sooooooo fun to be spoiled and let Grammy and doting Aunts take care of Sarah for a while.

I do love the fall. My house is decorated with dollar-store finds. I especially love Halloween. I've been following this blog 'The Shabby Nest,' (see link on the side) for some great decorating ideas. I found a great way to finally display some of my 'friends' from my college bug collection. Yay! Also, things in jars. I've got skeleton hands, spiders, and an eye-ball in jars on display. Hilarious and CHEAP! I can't wait to get out my fall clothes again and I've already started drinking my favorite Good-Earth tea. Yum..

Sarah will be 4 months this week. I can't believe how fast it's going! She's rolled over a few times but has decided to table that trick at the moment. Kurtis can get her to laugh so good, which is the cutest thing ever. I'd post a movie but the blog doesn't like our camera's format. Go figure. She smiles a ton and is grabbing and chewing on things like a little puppy. Her favorite though is holding onto a blanket and peeking out of it with her little eyes, as seen above. She's just adorable. I've yet to get a good picture of her smiling...I'm working on it!

Kurtis! I am jealous. I would love to go on a Man-Canoe trip. Post some pics of that sweet event for all of us to enjoy!

Julie, do you have a real bug collection from college or just a decorative one? I ask because Kurtis has a history with bug collections ... the real ones. I am sure he has told you the fate of Captain Underpants ...
