I guess one of the biggest things is that I’m not doing band this year.  This is the first time since 5th grade that I haven’t been playing my flute.  It is really odd and I miss it.  Brooke and Zach aren’t here anymore though’ so it wouldn’t be the same anyway.

Summer is over now and it is back to school.  I had a really tough time getting in to my classes again this semester, but I am finally now registered (The second week) and I’m now just waiting for my financial aid to go through.

I got a job at Goody’s, which is wonderful.  Chris and I joke that my benefits  are better than his because we get 50% off all of our food now   Also, I have started baking and selling my cookies there.  The first day they ALL sold out in 3 hours!

Chris is still loving his job at the  Bureau and he is of course very successful at it.  He is really looking forward to college football starting on Thursday!

I am sure now that I am sitting in class all day everyday I am sure that I’ll be back on here all the time again!

We had lots of fun riding our new bikes this summer.

We put in a vegetable garden this year.  It is sorta an experiment this year.  We planted lots of things!  Carrots, peas, zucchini, pumpkins, acorn squash, crook-neck squash, straight-neck squash,  radishes, hot peppers, sweet peppers, cucumbers and tomatoes.  So far, the radishes sprung up, they look like a little carpet out there.  Also, the cucumbers died

We got a new shed!  It is so nice!  We were so excited to get rid of the piece of crap tin one.  It looks fabulous.  We also got new patio furniture.  It was so worth it!  We spend so much time outside in the summer that it was something we definatly needed to do.  I bought our wicker for $50 at a garage sale 2 years ago and it was pretty trashed then.

I got a new bike.  It is SO awesome!  Chris and I really want to try to be healthier this summer.  We also sand and repainted Chris’ bike.  It look really great.  The people at the bike shop didn’t believe that we did it with just spray paint.  I will convert Chris’ to the “dark side” of middle of the night projects!

Brie and Tilly are naughty (mostly Brie) but good.  We are a very happy little family.
