I was going to try and be more regular about posting on this blog this fall but time seemed to get away from me as it seems to do most every fall. There are only three of us living at our house now, but that doesn't seem to make it any less busy.
I think there are several things that contribute to the busyness. At the library, fall activities and the planning for the rest of the year keep me busy. Then for the third year, I was in charge of the concessions for the girls swim team home meets. We have to adjust back to the school year routine. Rachel and I getting up and ready for the day and out of the house by about 7:45 (and 7:25 two mornings a week). Jeff switching from a focus of writing for the upcoming theater season to rehearsing, performing and putting together the shows (and all the logistics involved in working everyone's schedules together to put a show together). We also have three birthdays between Oct. 2 and Nov. 2. Then this year we added a trip to Colorado Springs to visit my Oma (grandmother) one last time before she died on Oct. 26th.
And the Lord has blessed us with a new teenage daughter. Sarah has been placed in our lives and we are thankful for her presence in our lives. She spent a good part of the summer with us before heading off for her first year of college. Since then she has been home to visit twice, always bringing her bright smile and sense of fun.
But, I think things are beginning to slow. Birthdays are past, swim season is wrapping up and we are looking forward to the holidays and the arrival of snow and the chance to get out and start skiing.
So I thank you for your patience if you've been looking for news from us and don't give up. I hope to be more regular at posting.
