What I've Been Up To

So its been 4 months since I got back from India and during that time, people keep asking when I’m going to update the blog…and by people I mean Lisa. So Lisa, even though you know what’s been going on in my life, here’s your update.

After I got back, it took a few weeks to get back in the swing of things and was able to enjoy the last bit of summer. There was sand volleyball, spending time with friends and family, Mexican and margaritas, the state fair, I-Cubs games and so much more.

A great day at Worlds of Fun

In August, my parents celebrated their 35th wedding anniversary. We had a great weekend with the whole family including a party, s’mores, water balloon fight and lots of laughs. Our family’s a little bit crazy…but I wouldn’t have it any other way!

Apparently I should have updated this more often because as I try to think of what I did in, I’m not really sure. I know there were some birthday celebrations, a few weddings, lots of hanging out with friends, lots of spending time with family, a little bit of work and just enjoying life. Man, that sounds cheesy.

Celebrating Laura's birthday with fighter helmets...is there any other way?

Our annual pumpkin carving night

At the end of October, Mom, Dad and I loaded the car to head to Austin, TX to visit Wendy. We spent one night in Oklahoma City and went to the bombing memorial. Then we continued south to Austin. The weekend was spent going to College Station for the ISU/TX A&M football game, going to San Antonio for the riverwalk and the zoo and eating lots of delicious BBQ.

Now it’s the end of November and Thanksgiving. I’m not really sure where the time has gone. And I sound old saying that. I’m ok with that. I’ll try to do better about keeping this updated…but no promises.
