Fall Preview

So tonight was a gorgeous night to sit on my recently finished patio.  My summer break was spent putting in long hours and although its not completely finished, it feels like a new room to my house.  Unfortunately, I live in a location that prevents me from using this wonderful addition year round.  For this reason, I feel compelled to spend as much quality time on it as possible.  After the last week of extremely hot and humid conditions, the weather tonight was perfect for sitting and visiting with our very close friends and neighbors.  We were even privileged to have the company of the town stray dog which my daughter has named Teddy.

Sitting on the patio tonight reminded me of how much I love fall.  Not only does it mean that my kids get to get back in the routine of daily life, but it also means the arrival of cooler weather and football.  One of my favorite hobbies is to watch football...everything from high school to pro!  This year I will get the privilege of watching my son participate in the Carroll Area Football League for the first time.  I'm extremely excited to watch his growth as an athlete and an individual over the upcoming years.  Best of luck to all our fall athletes that will soon begin preparing for their fall sports season.
