busy-ness!

Wow, days go by recently and I can't tell if the days feel like they are whizzing past me, or that time is dragging on at the pace of a snail.  When I think about my life moving as quickly as that fast forward button on the old VCR, I feel like I am missing out on the chipmunk voices that real life tends to lack when it goes by that quickly.

Fall is here in DC.  It is beautiful, sweaters and jeans are my (somewhat) daily attire, and every time I drive through my neighborhood I am speechless about the beautiful colors of the trees and how many more leaves are littered all over the street.  The night is falling earlier, and for some weird reason I like the fact that it is getting dark at 7:15pm.  Younglife club is going great, I have met a few great new high school friends this year, and am excited about a lot of different life events coming up soon!  So far we have already gone through homecoming, and fall sports are coming to a close.  Did someone say winter weekend?  Oh yea - because we are going there.  WHOOOOOOOOOO.

Also, I will be posting pictures soon of my living room.  This living room has been transformed in the last few weeks.  It is so exciting to see the little details come together, and see our room transform from a collection of all our stuff into a homey little hang out.  Mhmmmmm..... love it!

The daddy-o came down on Friday, and so we went to go grab dinner with him, and then seester came down for the Redskins v. Eagles game!  Goooooo Eagles - great seats - and SO THANKFUL the birds pulled out a win.  Gives me hope for the rest of the season. 

Work has been crazy, and I believe I am going to Africa for a week.  So all around business and craziness and a lot of stress.  But all wonderful exciting new adventures.  I just need to remind myself sometimes to slow down a little bit!

Life is SO good.  And I do believe it's getting better. <3
