We are still alive and kicking.  After coming back from vacation in Moab, life changed a little bit-- at least for us.  Fall had arrived and it was time to get ready for winter.  Time to put up the bikes and get ready for snowboarding.  Time to get back to the gym and spin classes.  Time to work on the wood pile we had been ignoring all summer and clean-up the yard.  Oh yeah, time to give the house a good cleaning as well.  We also added a new member to our pack-- a beagle puppy we named Luci.  

 

We also wrapped up our 32 Things to Do in 32 weeks.  We completed 21 out of 32-- not bad but definitely less than we had planned.  So some of you will be receiving gift cards over the course of the next several months-- enjoy!  We learned a lot about ourselves through doing this list of goals.  Sometimes you just like the idea of doing something but don't necessarily really want to do it--- like learn sign language.  Some things prove more difficult to accomplish than what you had expected--- like eating organic foods for 5 days when our local grocery stores don't even carry much organic food.  Some things just didn't seem worth the time and money when it came down to actually doing them-- like getting our passports when we have no plans to leave the country.  Some things we don't have any excuses for like writing a short story or riding the teeter totter. 

 

Now that the 32 weeks is over, we are planning to take our blog in a new direction.  We will still post photos and stories about what we are up to from time to time but we plan to focus more on other topics besides ourselves.  So check back in with us, and we will see what you think.
