August

...it's already here.
My internal "calendar" is telling me that it's Autumn.
There's that brisk chill in the air, that smells good when you breathe it in.
I LOVE AUTUMN.
I know we didn't have much of a Summer this year-which is a bummer. I did get to enjoy what summer we did have though.
Although I would be okay with it going longer- I hate to say it, but my "clock" has spoken and Autumn is here.

I'm getting the urge to tear down all my decorations and redo them-- but when I think of what I would redo them with, I picture things like this:



So I asked Justin the other day if he would freak out if I started decorating for Fall/Halloween- and he said I had to wait til after his Birthday.
September 8th.

It's not like I'm counting down the days or anything....

In other news:
August is a fun month for us (since it's already half over- and I'm just barely posting about it)

I pulled off Chelsea's baby shower in the 6th. It was awesome and cute and I loved it!
Makes me want a little girl
{we don't always need what we want though--haha}
Then Justin and I went to SLC on the 11th and sold, Sophie, Light blue puppy and Dark Blue puppy.
Very successful trip. We were then down to 5 dogs.
Then on the 13th, I pulled off Trish's baby shower- Another success!
{pictures to come}
This last week has been fun, with Ward Water slide parties on Tuesday (our ward) and yesterday (Jensen-my home ward)
 I got our new computer all hooked up and the vinyl cutter working and finally got some vinyl done last night. We also got a deposit on Pink and the lady is coming to pick her up today around noon-ish, so we are down to 2 males left!
$600- anybody??

As for the rest of the month:
 I get to go help haul wood tomorrow with my mom's family. Ever since I was little- even though Hauling wood is pretty hard work- it has always been great fun for me. I get to be with my family, we always have good talks, and good food. I look forward to it every year.
{I know I'm weird-- anyway}
Then next weekend, My mom, Sister and 2 neices are going to SLC for a Girls trip. We're going to the IMAX and a few other fun stops.
Then! The 1st-4th of September, we're going on a Pratt family trip!
We're going to go stay at Melanie and Monty's new little house in St.George for a few days and enjoy the warm weather, shopping, golfing etc. Then go to Vegas for a night or 2 and see a show, and walk the strip etc.
We have to be home in time for the Car Show @ Septemberfest in Rangely on Labor Day Monday.
Maybe we can talk my parents into riding over with us and having a fun day over there!

I can't believe the year is so far gone already, but I have certainly enjoyed myself this year!
Here's hoping there's more fun to come! Before the dreaded snow appears :S
