Good intentions

So the end of summer came and with it all the busyness of getting ready for school; thus blogging went by the wayside despite my best intentions.

We spent part of the week before school at our friends cottage near Caledonia State Park, then the rest of the week at Delaware Seashore state park. Both spots were wonderful with cool nights and warm days-a good end to the summer. I'm going to get my pics together and post a summer wrap up!

School started Monday after coming back from the beach. S likes her teacher (who she knows from the playground), and we know her as well as A had her a few years ago. Should be a fun year for her. A likes the diversity of middle school-especially having lots of different teachers.

Since everyone has been talking about Hanna- she was here as well. We had rain most of Saturday, everything from drizzle to gusty, pounding rain. Lots of leaves and small sticks down, but no major problems for us. By 10 last night she was gone leaving behind a beautifully clear and cool night; 68 when I got up this morning, sunny and clear skies.

We watched a couple of movies this weekend with the yuccky weather: Nim's Island which was cute if not far fetched and not what I expected from the preview; and Mad Money which was a lot better than I expected with several laugh out loud moments.

D is off at a half Iron man in Delaware, hope he is having as beautiful a day there. I'm sure he'll blog about it later.
