fall walking

Whew! What a busy weekend! It was really nice to have a 3 day weekend - thank you Columbus, even if your methods were a little questionable!  I think this weekend was the perfect amount of working time and relaxing time.  We restored our house to it's pre-insulation status finally.  I'll write more in the next post, but suffice it to say we were busy patching, painting, and moving furniture but we can finally live in those rooms again!  So much space!

I also went to spectate Jared's volleyball game.  They put on an event called Serve for the Cure that raised money for the breast cancer center at the local hospital.  He coached the heck out of that game.  The girls lost but only by a teenie margin.  They played a great game!

Then, Monday, we were able to get out on a nice walk around the pond by our house.  The leaves are just starting to turn bright colors so we had a nice little "leaf peeping" outing.  It was a little chilly but overall a pretty nice day for a walk.  Here are some of my favorite pictures!

bundled up and enjoying the day!

Jared pointed out this cool blue heron waiting for fish!

I think we both felt that we accomplished a lot this weekend but were also able to take some time to relax and enjoy ourselves.  If only every weekend could be three days!!
