So, it's been a while since I last posted any real updates. Between traveling short distances for great music and some "beach" time, getting settled into a new routine that allows for homework and an earlier bedtime, and then of course there are the weekends. You know how you think "It's the weekend! I can finally relax and catch up on sleep." or "It's the weekend! I can finally get that extra stuff done that I can't do during the week." and then by the time the weekend is over you are still as tired as you were Friday night when you went to bed (sometimes even more tired) or you feel as though you did not accomplish anything. Oh well, you still had fun, right!!
So, long story short...Labor Day weekend Jeff and I went over to The Gorge in George, WA to see Dave Matthews Band for my birthday. We "camped" (slept in a tent really) for one night and then came home the next morning. Then of course you already know Leah started school so we have gotten into a pretty good routine with homework and an earlier bedtime since Leah is waking up earlier and the boys decided that naps are for "babies" and refuse to go to sleep during the day. The weather was pretty nice for a while so we have been enjoying lots of outside time like taking the kids to Dash Point State Park so the kids could play in the sand and water, having BBQ's, helping with yard work and pulling out the water slide one last time.
We are looking forward to Leah's 6th birthday party next weekend and taking a real vacation to California a few weeks after that. Of course, that just leads right into Halloween, then Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping and of course Christmas itself. Not to mention Matthew and David's birthdays, and that's all before the end of the year. Just when I think things are going to start settling down soon...I figure out that life never really settles down.
