Late summer morning

August has been outstanding. After a long and rainy spring, we have been rewarded with an August that is nearly perfect...sunny and 80-85 degrees almost all month. Today we woke up to much cooler weather and you can feel Fall in the air. But it was a nice and relaxed morning...no one was fighting, the boys has some serious Lego building going on and I had a few minutes to search online for a pasta salad recipe to take to a picnic later today. And Talus was content to be in the center of it all, trying to decide if he should nap or take one last stroll through the kitchen in the hope of finding leftover cinnamon toast crumbs.

Another adventure

I'm not sure I'm really ready for this but I'm on a team. One of the runners had a last minute injury so I was asked if I wanted to run again. It's the same team I ran with 2 years ago, though several members have changed. My first leg will be at about 8am...next leg will be around 6pm. The last leg is the middle of the night leg...maybe 4am? I have my head lamp and reflective vest all ready to go. Should be fun!

Back from the beach

We had a great week! The weather was perfect, we loved the house we rented and we had lots of fun times playing outside and visiting with friends. If I can ever dig out from the mountain of sand-filled clothing that's piled up in the laundry room, I'll put up some more photos!
