A Fast Fall

I can't believe it's already halfway through October! Fall is our favorite season, and it always seem to wiz on by us.

We have been just moving along these past few weeks- working and trying to enjoy the nice weather:)

We have a very nice, relaxing anniversary. We ended up going shopping, and then Shawn grilled some yummy steaks. I got a beautiful boquet of flowers and a lovely bracelet-my husband does such a great job:)

Other than that we have just been enjoying fall. I hope everyone is doing the same!

Falling out of Balance

Good morning!

It has been a busy, busy last few days/weeks/month? Shawn and I just got back from Ryan's wedding in South Carolina-which was absolutely wonderful. I am very happy for my brother and his new wife-I hope they are enjoying their honeymoon today and enjoy being newlyweds:) The trip was fun-it was great to spend time with grandparents and our new Southern family. In the midst of all of it, I did not take many pictures myself but am certainly hoping to bum off of everyone who came that did:) Everyone send me some pictures! I figured with all of the women taking pictures I would be able to get some great ones for memories:)

So, even thought we got back yesterday, I have chosen to take today off to get my head straight. These past few weeks have been maddening-I have been gone a ton from work, yet have had to go in early, stay in late, and work on the weekends in order to write sub plans for it all. Even though I know its just a busy time, I have already been thinking about getting back on the track of balance and making sure that I feel like most of my time is spent at home with family. So, I am going to use today to recover from being gone, then make a point to establish a work and weekend schedule that helps me balance family time, me time, house time and work time.

I also want to make sure to get refocused again because fall is here:)
