Fall is approaching...

which means summer is coming to an end and life in our house is a bit crazy again. I just went back to school this past week- I am in my final semester, and so far my student teaching experience is going really well. Dan is still learning the in's and out's of his new job while preparing to start back up on his masters degree (which makes me ultra proud). Farris just started at a new daycare, and is learning to adjust to the new environment and new faces-she seems to really enjoy it! On top of all of our regular routines, we are also trying to finish up loose ends with the wedding, which is quickly approaching--49 days!!! (but who’s counting?)

Since Dan and I are both well aware that life is soon going to be busy for all of us, we decided to have a much needed family day…yes, just the three of us (it was SO nice)! We started the day off by taking our time to get out of bed. Farris doesn’t sleep with us, but we brought her into our room after she woke up to cuddled and talk about what we wanted to do with our day. We decided that we were going to take Farris to the Children’s Zoo in Lincoln. So, we packed up the car and off we went. Farris enjoyed feeding the goats and riding the train at the zoo. Dan and I both really like the zoo in Omaha, but this one is nice because Farris can run around and be a little more independent. After leaving the zoo, we were all hungry and even though Dan was craving Red Lobster, Farris and I convinced him that Chuck E. Cheese was a better choice =) We played games, won tickets, and ate disgusting pizza…hahaha! After leaving Chuck E. Cheese we decided to finish off the night by running to TCBY for some frozen yogurt…yummy! Once we got back home, we were all ready for baths and bed (but not before blogging).

Days like today are what I live for. No matter how stressful life can get I know that I am truly blessed to have such an awesome family-I love them both with my heart!

Well, it has been a long day (and now the wedding is only 48 days away)…jeesh…Good Night and Sweet Dreams!
