Visitors!

Erin and Jon are here! YAY! And what are we doing? Well Erin and I are kicking it back on our comfy couch watching the men try to wall mount our TV. Why you may ask? Because Robert and I are way to cheap to hire someone to do it. I am jsut praying I don't wake up in the middle of the night to a huge crash, only to find our awesome 36 flat screen high definition TV shattered on our floor. That would be awful. But the men seem confident, so I am too. I think.

On a more important note....

Happy ring day to the best sister in the world!

Becca deserves her Aggie ring more than anyone I know. She has worked so hard and done so well at A&M... Even after everyone told her she couldn't get in. Just like everyone told her she couldn't play basketball. She is so incredible and such a hard worker- she's been such a great example to me.

Congrats Boo! I know you are going to do a great job chugging that pitcher of beer! I wish more than anything that I could be there!

WHOOP!

So Long Summer

So it's starting to get cold here. As in on August 31 I drove to work in 38 degree weather. What the heck? It's August. Oh right- we live in Colorado. Guess I need to put on my big girl thermals.

I'm not going to apologize for not posting in almost a month. I am also not promising to post more regularly. I have tried that and it did not work. What can I say? The last thing I want to do when I get home from work is upload a blog post... Sorry. I will try to have an attitude adjustment. But here is all the fun we've had this last month!

We went to Breckenridge with Aunt Bev and Uncle Coy! We had such a great time. All the yellow dots in the river behind us are for a huge labor day fundraiser they have... so fun! We hiked, played tennis, ate awesome food, and just loved getting to see them. More pictures to come... my other camera is in my car. But hey! That means another post soon (I hope).

We ate edamame! Not so exciting. But the first time we ate on our beautiful sushi plates! I love them.

We went rock climbing in Lyons, which is right outside of Boulder over labor day weekend. Above is pictured the rattle snake Robert and our friend Andy killed after stumbling upon it while hiking down. Sorry- no actual pictures of rock climbing. I was too busy tearing up my hands trying to climb huge boulders.

Here he is again... the awesome snake killer!!!!

So remember that fire that is totally burning up Colorado? Well it started while we were climbing and was not too far from us... oops. Don't worry we were completely safe. But this picture is from our drive home. The sun was setting right into the smoke. It looked cool, but in reality it is not cool. A lot of homes have burned up and they are having a really hard time controlling the fire. So be praying for all the families who have had to evacuate and/or have lost their homes. I could not imagine. But the Lord is faithful and sovereign!

Love y'all
