It's Fall, Baby!

Wow...the condition of my blog and the neglected condition of my house are very telling of how busy we have been lately! :o)


Life has included a weekend trip to see my family in NJ, followed by an annual weekend trip with friends (which involved 6 adults and 5 children...a little hectic, yes...but oh so wonderful!)...




We sprinkled in our town's Halloween parade with our neighbors, where the candy is practically thrown at the kids in full bags...




...some playtime in the leaves...




...some intentional dog-breeding (more on that soon!)...




...a liiittle bit of applesauce-making with the bestie (140 quarts total)...




...aaand maybe a little house project that involves a wall being knocked out. (I'll save those pics for another post.) But thank GOD we have little helpers to clean up the mess, or I'd be beside myself. ;o)



A full but ENJOYABLE Fall it has been so far!


This week, though, we are focused on the half-marathon that we have been training for since June. I can't believe it's on Saturday already! I haven't written much about training over the past few months, but it has been going well. Two shorter runs during the week, and a long run on the weekend. Let's see what happens this weekend! :o)
