Fall is officially here, and I am loving the cooler weather. Autumn is my favorite season; I’m not quite so crazy about what comes after. If I had my way, it would snow the first week in December, stay through Christmas, and go away on January 2nd. I live in the wrong part of the country for a person who doesn’t like cold, snowy, long winters, and hot, dry, long summers.

The archery tournament was fun, and Josiah won first place! He was pretty excited - this was the first extra-curricular activity he’s gotten involved in, so it was cool that he excelled. Of course, the fact that he beat his sister and brothers - all older than him - made him pretty proud, too. :)

The Seahawks also won their game last Sunday, so it was a good weekend. Of course, they were playing a pretty poor team, but they showed some promise. They have a bye this week, so no game on Sunday. We’re helping friends move tomorrow, and then I need to go through the kids’ fall/winter clothes and see what we need to buy before the really cold weather sets in. Lots of pants, I know already, since they all seem to have grown inches in just the past few months.

Anyone planning to watch the debate tonight?
