And I've been seriously absent from this blog.


My apologies.  It's not due to lack of material.  It's due to lack of time.  Between surgery and work and moving Chris to St. Paul and work and decorating his apartment and work... life has been hectic.

But I'm going to try hard to post all those missed moments in the upcoming weeks.  There is so much to cover.  Videos to post.  Pictures to share.  Life has been documented, just not shared.  And it's time to share.


BUT.  Before that, let's just discuss today.

Today's high temp was 59 degrees.  FIFTY NINE DEGREES!  Where did summer go?!?!?

And tonight it's supposed to get to 22 degrees! 

What.  The.  Eff.

I am SOOOO not ready for fall... and for that nasty white flaky stuff that comes with the season after that.  Shhhhhh.. don't say the word.  If we don't talk about it, maybe it won't actually come.

Yes, I know I'm delusional.  But I seriusly do not want winter to come.  This summer went by faster than Lightening McQueen and I'm so not ready to be thrown back into a MN winter.

So, to celebrate our last few days of warmth, Caleb and I headed out to the backyard for a little pantsless fun (just him, I was wearing pants).  Why no pants?  Well... because he had a pee accident and I didn't want to put another pair of pants on him.  Just undies.  And it was warm enough to do that.  So there.

I took lots of photos so in a few months, when the snow is up to the windows, I can pull up those photos and try to remember the warmth and the sun from that beautiful day.  And the happy little boy that goes along with all that time outside.

Enjoy this little sample.
