Time for a Change!

Forget the 90 degree weather today, it is officially Fall for me!! I've finally figured out how to put a photo up... mind you it's from last year, and we both look totally differant :) , but I love this photo taken on the balcony of our hotel in the Great Smokey Mountains.

So w/ the crispness that we experienced this past weekend tent camping w/o a sleeping bag because somebody forgot to pack it, but I'm not going to name names, just remember that I was in charge of food and clothing. Not tents, campstoves, air matresses, or SLEEPING BAGS!! Oh, sorry! Where was I? OH, Happy Fall!!!

I'm Baacck!

Fall is definitly in the air! We went camping w/ the boyscouts this weekend, and were actually wearing heavy jackets at points!I knew that it was cold especially when we pulled away from the campsite yesterday it was only 57 degrees, but then realized when I watched the news this am that it hadn't even hit 70 at all this weekend!

I often groan at the thought of spending a weekend w/ the boys, in the cold, w/ no showers and just a double seater privy, but I really enjoyed myself this weekend. We took the boys fishing Sat. and had a pretty good hike to get to the lake, and I really enjoyed it, but did not like the snake that we saw swimming through the sunshine covered water.

We came home to find our furnace had broken down, so luckily we had a savaged unit stored in our garage that fits our house perfectly, so hubs and my FIL replaced our furnace yesterday afternoon. It should actually be more efficient then the old one. Thankfully my FIL had the foresight to save that unit when he had installed a newer one for someone (he owns his own HVAC company), and I'm grateful that we were able to install it ourselves, b/c we definitly don't have the funds for that kind of expense right now.

Last night at church we started the 2nd year of Sunday night classes/activities. I'm so thankfull to have my little ones again. Mikey even told me our story (Jesus walking on water) on our way home from church!
