Yes, I've been MIA lately. There's been so much going on around here that I've barely had time to check my email. So, that means, that over the next few days, I have TONS to share. It's all going to be a little out of order, but one of the best things that I ever learned when I used to scrapbook was that, if you get behind, start with the most current event and work your way backwards. And believe me, I used that piece of advice on NUMEROUS occasions. NUMEROUS. LOTS. Okay.

Chance and I took off yesterday afternoon on a little adventure. We've been trying to locate a few new places to hang out with the dog and fish. I've been nagging the boys pretty regularly lately about how they are never home and how we never do anything together anymore. School. Work (they both have jobs now). Bands. Friends. There's always something to do. So when Chance suggested that we take a little drive yesterday, I packed the dog, camera, and water bottles before he could change his mind.

And here's what we found.

It's an old dam. We had to hike through the thick, overgrown woods, past the snakes and bugs and I don't even want to know what else, until we found it. It was the coolest thing I've seen in a while. We only stayed there about a half an hour, because, as awesome as it was, the stench of the stagnant water was too much for me to take. And I can take a lot. Normally, stuff like that doesn't bother me. But it was bad. But it was also soooo cool.

I can't wait to go back. Preferably after a little rain.

Concert Band Rocks

This morning BRIGHT AND EARLY at 8:15am, the dedicated Leon CONCERT BAND geeks met at Godby HS for their MPA Festival.  Did I say bright & early? Did I mentioned 8:15am on a SATURDAY morning? Ok, good.

They were awesome!

I didn't get to see Symphonic Band because they played the night before these guys. But I'm sure they ROCKED IT too!

Praying

For about 13 glorious minutes each afternoon, there is this golden, warm sunlight that shines through our windows. And for 13 minutes I just sit and enjoy it. It's amazing and inspiring. Really.

We have been glued to the TV news today and are praying for those that have been and are affected by the earthquake and tsunami in Japan and all along the Pacific.
