Is that a little sign of fall I see?

That's right! You see a L.L. Bean Hammock with our last name monogrammed on the pillow! All New England homes need one of these, so thanks to my mom, we now have one, too! But right next to it is sedum that starts to bloom in the FALL! The best season ever has arrived! I can't wait to lay outside and read on the weekends while looking at the beautiful foliage in my own backyard.

Labor Day Weekend

The best part of Labor Day is that I DON'T have to be at work! What a beautiful day for some Mommy, Puck, and Lisa time.

I Heart September!

This really is the best month! My anniversary was on the first: 3 years! Naturally, it was about 100 degrees in CT with what seemed like 100% humidity. So, here's some math for you-

Yup.

We had EARLy dismissal on Friday because of the hurricane. (Get it... EARLy dismissal... Hurricane EARL Ha! One of my clever friends came up with that!) All we saw were a few sprinkles of rain, but boy it was nice to get a few extra hours of a long weekend!

Today, I used the Garmin, and for the first time, I finished 3.1 miles without walking in the middle. YAY! It's taken me an embarassing 8 months to get this far, but I am proud of myself none the less. I went 3.12 miles, in 37:17 minutes, an average pace of 11:58 minutes per mile. So, that pace is pretty slow, but I am going to blame it on the allergies today. Even though I'm not feeling up to snuff, I had to go try out the Garmin and take advantage of the beautiful early fall weather!

Finally, there is this family 4 houses away that rescued a 2-year-old olde english bulldog. It surprised the family by having 5 puppies! From the information they gathered from the owner, the father is a puggle/dalmation and the mother is the olde english bulldog. These puppies are quite a mix. I don't know how long the video cam will be on, but here is the link to the webcam:

Puppies!

I love them!
