If you’ve followed my blog in the past, you may have noticed that I haven’t posted in a few months. Nothing is wrong–I just got busy with a third child! And I got a couple of negative comments that put me off for a bit, but that wouldn’t really have stopped me if I didn’t have some extra “help” around. I’m still here and I still get your comments! I just have some real-life things that got more interesting than writing. Thank you to those who expressed concern at my uncommunicativeness. How’s that for a word?

We’ve had a fun summer. Three reunions (Grange, Bushman, and Jensen) kept my travel bug pretty satisfied. I got a calling teaching the CTR7 Primary class at church (that’s the 7-year-olds) and have been enjoying getting to know the children in my class. Just this last Saturday Sonja & Dick took the kids and I to Train Town (I think it’s in Napa), and we had an impressively great time riding rides and appreciating the scenery, especially considering the 100+ degree weather.

Oh, and an announcement! My good husband is going back to school this semester to finish the last of his MBA. Yay Colin! I’m very excited that he’s decided it’s time to get it done, even though it will mean some sacrifices in terms of time and money.
