It's Time for an Update

One may ask where we have been. Well I wish I had a good exciting excuse, but really I've mostly been at a loss for what to write about. Somehow as I've been trying to come up with something exciting and profound to blog, three months goes by. The several friendly comments ("Are you ever going to update your blog?", "I think it is time you updated your blog!", "How is your blog coming?")have finally pushed me into a more motivated state and I am resolving to do better. When life becomes mundane and boring, it is hard to share new and insightful things. Please bare with me as I come out of a blogging hiatus.

A quick update should get you up to speed: the summer went by too quickly, we enjoyed time at the pool (thanks mom and dad), a trip to Mexico with Chris' family, my parents returned from Houston (nice to have them home). Lots of work, with not a lot to do at work. School started again, which means seminary did also. I'm teaching the freshman this year and they are a great group of kids. They are tired a lot in the mornings, but so am I. We are enjoying learning the stories of the Old Testament. There is some great stuff in there. The cold weather is here too quickly and I am bummed about that. My garden froze early, but it did pretty good, lots of tomatoes, zucchini, cucumbers and peppers. I turned 30, which has been a little more difficult than I would have thought, but hey there isn't much to be done about that. We got new couches, we got a piano, and we got satellite. Chris recieved his diploma, he officially graduated, he worked hard and is glad to be done.

I'm sure there is more I was trying to think of the most exciting things, sorry it isn't much. I will pool all my pictures from the last couple of months and share some photos. I will be better about updating, I promise.
