What a week!

I made it back from Arkansas, with more in tow than I left Utah with, thank you mom! But I had fun. Shon went nuts! And I thought it was kind of funny. We haven't been apart for that many days (four days) ever. We have always done things together. So that was interesting.

But back to Arkansas. It wasn't as bad as I remember it from say oh-8 years ago, I think it was. It was a little warm, but once you had about enough of the heat, we were either back in the truck with the air conditioning running or the breeze would start up again.

I got to see my sister who I haven't seen in 3 years. Same for my parents, it was going on almost two years. And, my cousins, second cousins and my uncle John-who is SO much like my grandpa! I didn't get to seen my Aunt Carol, though I had a blast getting to know my cousins and second cousins more.

I think I need to purchase a frequent flyer program somewhere, cause it seems to more we will need to be making more trips out there!

I have some nice pictures to share, just as soon as I can find my camera cord. Let's all say a prayer that Cristina can find it! My blonde moment for the day--well maybe the second or third, but who's counting?!

On to other subjects:
Our family has "fall-itis"-meaning we are ready for fall! I want to put my halloween decorations up now! I want the leaves to change more and I want the stinker summer to go away! Is that too much to ask? I think not!

Shon has the deer hunt itch as well. He got a new gun, after selling his old one, and he has the big ol' Ford F-250 4x4 to go with that hunt now.

Ashton is also signed up for football again this fall. He is still going to play flag football, no tackle yet. He is a bit too little for his age for tackle just yet. He did start school a couple weeks ago and he seems to like it. We are having him work on some reading because he seems to be having a little bit of a problem on that. Otherwise, we are hopeful for straight A's again this year across the board.
