September 2010

Wow, September came and went before I even knew it. I have been doing a pretty poor job of posting on this lil' blog. I am rededicating myself. This is my only form of journaling, and September wasn't the best documented of months.

September was chalk full. The month started out with trips here and there, and a fun end of Summer party. It continued on, but my blogging didn't. So I sit here scratching my head. Seriously, where did September go??

This month brought us interesting weather. And a pretty harvest moon. It also officially brought Fall our way. Though I haven't felt too much Fall, it's still 80 degrees out there. Perhaps October will bring us that nip in the air that I love so much this time of year. Hello October, bring on the holidays, the lovely weather, and the pumpkin carving fun. Goodbye September, it really didn't feel like you stayed long.

The rest of the cabin shots..

Sorry I have been M.I.A this week. It's been a tough one. Let's just say that 2010 is not my year. But now I am back and feeling better. So as promised I thought I would post the rest of the cabin pictures. Yes, I know it was a while back, but I finally finished editing them.

Being at the cabin was so nice. It was comfy, and the people we spent time with are some of our favorites. Tom and Celeste were the best hosts, they made us feel right at home.

We did a little four wheeling, exploring, and fishing. (Thanks to Tom for being such a good guide and introducing us to gorgeous Ashton.)

But for the most part we just hung out at the cabin, ate good food, played games, talked, and just relaxed. And believe me, that was fine by us! We needed a little vacation away to recharge our batteries and this trip did just that.

I always love spending time with family, so it was so fun to have not only Tom and Celeste's cute family to hang out with, but his Grandpa Bob, Uncle Brad, Aunt Nita, and Cousin Amy came up as well. Not to mention all of those darling kiddos running around.

Oh and who could forget Tom and Celeste's pup Daisy?

I also learned about a weird tradition on Bob's side of the family. Apparently they like to take pictures with things up their noses. So when Bob showed me, part of me was cracking up and part of me wanted to run in the other direction.

Random Tuesday

I was looking through the pictures I have taken lately on my phone, and realized in the last 5 days I have a culmination of some of the most random/strange pictures. So I thought I would share them with you on this random Tuesday. A Tuesday that I have already had my car almost run out of gas. (I literally pulled into the gas station on fumes.) I've seen the bird that I presume made the outline on my window at work cannibalized by other birds. (Not a good day for that little tweety bird.) and have been told that cutting my hair would be like trading in a Rolls-Royce for a V.W. Bug.

Yes today is random, so I am embracing it with this random sampling of pictures. Enjoy.

Ashton, Idaho

If you were going to take a stroll around Tom and Celeste's cabin. This is what you would find..

Not only did we feel like we were completely secluded, and in touch with nature, we felt like we were in the lap of luxury. We ate well, laughed our guts out, relaxed, and spent time with some of our favorite people. (More on them later.) We didn't want to leave. Thanks again Tom and Celeste for inviting us up.

A few more from the party..
