And so it begins...

It's funny- I don't think I've ever been one of those kids that wants summer to last forever- I think I've always liked school, especially a new year. Maybe I'm deluding myself into a false memory, but I really do think I've always liked school. Maybe it's because growing up I had very few kids my age to play with so school was the only time I'd see them. Huh? I wonder?

Anyhow- here it is again- that crispness to the air, the smell in the hall, school is coming- now I know that for many it has already begun, but not for us. The big day is September, 21st- a Thursday. Wait, a Thursday? Wow. Why Thursday? I'm sure there are all kinds of bureaucratic answers, but really who cares? It's THURSDAY! Only 2 days of school the first week! Awesome.

So as we begin the new quarter I want to look forward and look back...

Looking back at the summer here is a brief recap-

June- Friends came to visit
July- My nephew came to stay for the summer "Danny the Nanny"
August- The Fam went to St. George, Sara and I went to PCPA, Kathy and I went to Vegas and Abby turned 4! Wow August was busy.
September- Clara Kozbial was born, Sara was married- AWESOME and Alexander turned 1!

Looking forward-

September- School starts, Cate and I will walk in the Breast Cancer Awareness Walk in the OC, My brother starts a new job.
October- Student Play Festival, 2 friends get married
November- The Country Wife, More friends get married
December- 2 babies are due! (Michelle and Alejandra)

So I've got quite a bit to keep me busy!

I am very much looking forward to the new school year, especially The Country Wife- Oh man is it funny and it will be gorgeous!

I hope to have time to fill you all in (all 3 of you) on the shenanigans that take place over the next few months!

Do you smell fall in the air? No that's not smog, it's the scent of spice and the harvest to come; of an ending and the promise of beginning.

And so it begins...

My love for fall has been quelled by the threat of cold/snow weather and a brand new school. (Though both carry a bit of excitement as well.) All I can think about is how fast it is all going. Seems like it was just Christmas. Last year at this time I was leaving you guys. I'm feeling a little homesick on this up and coming anniversary. (By the way...what's your bro's new gig?)

I love winter. Which I think is like an east coast fall, so I like fall. California fall seems to have secumbed (did I spell that right?) to an extended summer. But may I just say, wow, you have had a full summer!!!
