lately

 I would love to fill you in on all the super fun things I've been doing this summer, but I haven't been doing much anything thats super fun. Depressing...I know. Grad school has taken over my life and my summer...depressing. Thankfully only 3 days left of classes! And teachers go back to school in exactly 2.5 weeks...again, depressing. I love my job. I really do love teaching, but staying home is kinda nice! The first few days I had no idea what to do with myself, but that passed pretty quickly! Now I have a good routine...besides grad school homework, I actually have time to go to the gym/spin class, grocery shopping, clean the house, lunch with friends, afternoons at the pool, errands, etc. I'm really enjoying it. Its going to be really hard to get back into my work routine in a few weeks...and have to wear normal clothes again because I have been living gym clothes and I'm not going to lie, I kind of love it.

So thats our life lately, or my life at least. The hubby is doing great! Loving his new job and praise the Lord, he starts working full time in less than 2 weeks! Our house is still a work in progress and will be for a while, I'm sure. I can't believe we've been homeowners for almost 4 months! We are loving summer in LR and enjoying some weekend getaways since Ben is off on Fridays. Summer has flown by, really this whole year has! Fall will be here before we know it. I will say that is one thing I love about being home in the US is having 4 seasons. In Australia all the seasons just kind of ran together. For example here in the US we have spring everything blooms, and fall the leaves change colors and fall, etc...you get the idea. In Australia everything was green all year round, that was just weird!

Sorry, so short and sweet but its time to go watch a movie and snuggle with my boys (aka-sweet puppy and handsome hubby)!
