It's that time again! I'm linking up to Laura's Day in the Life post. I just realized I didn't get any pictures of me throughout the day. Maybe the winter edition will include me! :)
I chose Wednesday, October 17, but then halfway through the day I forgot to take pictures. :) So we tried again for Thursday, October 18th.
5:58- Buddy's up. He was only up once last night, and he ...

Another special treat from my husband this fall: a weekend away by myself. We looked for cheaper flights and found that it was fairly reasonable to fly to Denver. My man's aunt owns a condo up in the mountains. We found that it was available, so we booked the ticket and off I went!
The plane trip went uneventfully. As I went through security I realized that I haven't flown alone ...

I've been so bad about keeping up with this blog lately. We've been busy. Life is happening. Truthfully, I'm happy about that. When we moved here the kids and I would go to Walmart or Target just so we had somewhere to go. Now we're actually making plans, meeting people, and getting out. Here's some of what's going on:
* We've found a church! It's definitely not what we planned on ...

How is it Monday again already? The beginning of last week took FOREVER, but once Friday hit everything was a blur.
* Sunday we entertained! I love entertaining, but we haven't done much of it lately. The company? Friends of mine from CT. I've known them since junior high, I think. They live about 45 minutes away (on the other side of the city) so this was the first we've seen ...

* The weather this weekend? PERFECT! Saturday was a high of 90 and breezy! People were out in jeans. I wore a shirt with sleeves (short) and a tank top underneath...that's how I dress for the "cooler" weather. We went to a farmer's market and pretended we were in Vermont again, until we tried samples of roasted Hatch peppers.
* Love my boy! I was getting ready to shower, so my ...

While at Mamas Write last weekend I realized that my man has turned me into a geek. The wifi was spotty so I was using 3G for my iPhone. At the beginning I was just tweeting away, not thinking much about it. During the session before lunch I realized that my battery wasn't going to make it the whole day. So I did what any geek would do. I tweeted ...

I thoroughly enjoyed yesterday! I'm just gonna list all the wonderful things that happened.
My parents are here. My man is away on business (that doesn't make today wonderful, just to clarify). I'm happy to have company. I can't imagine being home without friends, family, etc for a week.
The weather was perfect for my run! Fall will come someday! Yay!
We walked to the park. Baby Girl biked to the park. I ...

This weekend I attended Mamas Write, a Christian mom blogging conference. When I moved down here I searched on twitter for local blogs and Mamas Write came up. While I wasn't sure it was something I wanted to do, my man pushed me to attend. He's always making me step out of my comfort zone, which is a good thing. I just don't always like it.
I'm not sure what I ...

* I attended a blog conference this weekend. Still processing all of it. Post to come.
* Last weekend we walked to the park. Baby Girl ran the whole way to the park. This is how she got home:
So cute!! Her head kept bobbing like a sleeper in church. My man had to keep catching her. Finally I just carried her home. Tired girl!
* I'm thinking about buying this floral rug ...

The weather in Texas seems to be the polar opposite of Vermont. Sunny, hot, humid. We've definitely needed to adjust. Some days I feel like we're doing well with the adjustments, and other days when I'm sweating half my body weight off I wonder if we'll ever adjust.
This week, however, has been such a blessing! It's been cooler, like in the 70s and 80s. Yesterday we had a true rainy ...
