Zomg, I'm alive...

Wow. I can't believe I've gone all summer without posting. Well, it's past labor day now, and back to the old grind.

We had a lot of fun this summer. Most of our weekends were spent out of town - either up at Grand Lake, down south in Pueblo, anywhere where we could pitch a tent and enjoy the summer evenings. It got a bit old by the end...it seemed I just finished putting our camping stuff away when I was digging it back out though. We made so many memories this summer though...

We took a week long trip to Missouri with Chase's Dad and siblings. We went to the Lake of the Ozarks, and even though the week was emotionally hard for me *for reasons beyond anyone's control*, it's still my new favorite lake, and we had a lot of fun. Hunter was even well behaved on the 12 hour drive. Thank you Papa and Mama for the VCR and "Kitty Cat and Mouse" tape.

Chase and I bought a catamaran mid August for $50. Obviously, for $50, it needs a lot of work, but we have all winter to get it ready for some serious sailing next spring. Or something like that. Chase is still convincing me that this is a good idea. We did enjoy sailing on our honeymoon...

Football season is finally back, which is the only reason I look forward to Fall. I am not excited to see the Broncos go downhill this season, but, contrary to McDaniel's beliefs, I think this is a rebuilding year and perhaps next year we will see some light. Guac and chips on Sundays gets me through the long, dreary, gray months.

Hunter's third birthday is rapidly approaching. Birthday party details are in the works, and this years 3 year old blowout shall be the best ever. Hunter will also be starting preschool within the next month or so. He is doing SO much better with his speech and almost always communicates his needs to us using words now (high five, Hunter). He has trouble articulating however, so usually only Mommy can understand him. He'll be getting extra help at preschool, and we're confident his speech therapy days are coming to an end!

I don't know what else to say except that I feel happy that my blogging was only put on temporary leave due to a summer full of memories - some good, some bad, but never will any of them be forgotten. I'll always cherish my days with my two boys.

Someday I'll add some pics. Right now, it's bedtime.
