Rustling Thoughts

It's been so long and I'm so sorry! All excuses aside (though Clarence has turned into a huge jerk and will only on occasion wake up before I spend 10-15 minutes convincing him to work with me- thus using him does not happen as frequently as in the past), I should have at least posted an August recap before now. In any case, here we are. Fall semester has started. My family has already left for our Maui trip (I am writing this up sitting on the bed listening to birds chatter outside while everyone else is down at the beach- I stayed up to work on a college assignment (which I  did  finish before typing all this up). Things are finally starting to cool down at home. But this is getting into the happenings and should not be in the intro, so. Happenings: August: 1. We had Christian's team come back through and spend the night a week before they would all be home. 2. Christian came home. 3.

We had several families over from Church for fellowshipping, and so that we would have a reason to watch the super bowl because Christian is pretty much the only one who follows sports. Ah, but we had a beautiful sunset that night! 3. Clare...

Ah, January. The first month of the year. *totally did not almost write '2014' on one of my assignments, shhh* *is proud of self for having a header pic for every recent blogpost* Stats: Entry Pageviews United States 796 Russia 449 Singapore 79 Ukraine 47 Germany 18 France 14 Canada 5 Indonesia 5 Italy 4 Poland 4 Happenings: *opens blogger to write about the month* *brain instantly forgets everything I wanted to write* 1. College classes started back up again. I have two online and one on campus, but I only have to go in one day each week, so that's nice. Lydia has a class as well, but the class times are off just enough so that we can't go together (though, she has to go in again on Wednesdays). 2. We hosted two families after Church on New Year's Eve. We stayed up late playing taboo (all the quieter people against the louder people ends up with a very clea...
