Good morning. I know many of you are waiting for fall and love the cooler weather but for me…. I already am missing summer. My house is a little cool this morning as I sit here in the chair with COFFEE CUP and a blanket.
The one good thing about fall is that I suddenly do not wish to go outside in the cool weather so that means more blogging and boy.. do I need that! Thank goodness Bloggiesta is at the end of this month because I am behind on reviews, challenge updates, and well… everything! 😀
Life is still busy here. Tomorrow I am organizing our annual tailgate party for about 250 people at church. I have a great team of helpers so I am pretty relaxed about it and how it will go. On Monday I am meeting with the library after work and setting the Banned Book Week window. Then that evening I have a library meeting. Tuesday is book club and while I found the book HORRID (oh yeah, I said it….) I have a fun plan for the food. Wednesday is out Church Annual Meeting, I think I have a good handle on that right now, Thursday is dinner with friends, Friday is out for Al (hubbys) birthday, and Saturday I go to the Cities with some Bookies to have dinner with Sandra Brannan and then attend her book signing.
Yup… life has not slowed down. 😯
For this mornings Saturday Snapshots (Hello Alyce!!! 😀 ) I though I would post some memories from a year ago… I opened up my picture files this morning and looked at last August September and thought it would be fun to reflect on a year ago:
Stop by At Home With Books to see other participants of Saturday Snapshot.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Saturday! Doing anything fun today?
Book Journey 
46 degrees? We’d be cutting the heat on.
I am trying hard not to do that Kathy because the sun is peeking out.. but yeah.. brrrrr!
Woohoo. Fall is coming.. I can not wait. It sounds like you had a great time. Enjoy your weekend.
Jenea
Ehhh…. I am a summer girl, but fall is still better than winter 😀
Wow, your area does cool off! We are in the 80s and feeling happy. Love your photos! Enjoy your weekend….
Minnesota is crazy Laurel… it was 80 two days ago… and it will be again before fall is over 😀
I haven’t been on a horse in years! That all looks like way too much fun 🙂
I hurt my tailbone on the last mud run I did (SO EMBARRASSING!) so I didn’t ride horse this year but it was offered at camp again.
Great pictures! The fall is going get busier for me, too! It’s always so fun, though. I’m looking forward to it.
I think I am an activity junkie now… I dont know how to slow down and keep looking for more events 😀
Brrrrr. Your weather is usually a few weeks ahead of me. It’s only in the 50s at night and it’s warming up nicely today. I’m dreading the cold and it’s not even here yet!
Its cool today and windy… I will be inside 😀
I have always wanted to do a mud run, they look like so much fun! Thanks for sharing your photos this week! Book Savvy Babe
I am so ready for fall weather lol! We are east of you, so maybe we will have your weather tomorrow. Mud Runs look so fun!
They are so much fun – check out active.com, they list activities such as these by state.
I can’t even tell you how much I love this weather. It feels so good to throw on jeans and a sweatshirt 🙂 Enjoy your busy weekend!
Thanks! I believe I will live through it 😀
I’m so curious as to which book it was that you thought was horrid for book club. 🙂
LOL (right sidebar Alyce, I always post what my book club is reading….;) I will be reviewing it this next week.
Great photos! It looks like you have had a fulfilling and wonderful summer!
Rebecca @ The Key to the Gate
I did – these are last fall… this summer…. so any other things I did it would take more than a post 😀
Looks like lots of fun!
It all was 😀
I wish some nice, Fall weather would show up, as I’m tired of having to sleep with the air conditioner on! Spring is my favorite season, but Fall is a close second! I don’t like weather extremes, so not a fan of summer or winter. 😦
Looking forward to this year’s Bloggiesta! And next week is BBAW! Yea!
Too fall for me …too soon 😀 I know…. BBAW already this next week. SO much to plan for 😀
I had an early taste of fall in Alaska last month and I can’t wait for more! We’re in the upper 80’s today!
It sounds like you keep a hectic schedule, but it also sounds fun too!
And thank your son for serving in the Navy. Last Sunday, I visited the Naval Academy in Annapolis and got a little appreciation of all that the young men and women go through in serving.
It is fun Kim… I keep thinking some day I will not want to (ot be able to) do these things, doing it now though 😀
Fun set of pictures. Where is the Mud Run? It looks like a blast.
This one is in Bloomington – at the Corn Maze Anna 🙂 You can google it at Mud Factor.
It’s fun to remember what was going on a year ago. The weather is cooler here now too after the bad weather moved through. I baked pumpkin bread. Here’s Mine
Its cooler this year then it was last year at this time… I dont like that 🙂 OOH pumpkin bread though!
I love the North Shore – but I am curious to know, what is a mud run? My Snapshot is at http://goo.gl/g4s6H
Christine, if you google mud runs you will find mass amounts. 😀 They are activities allover the world where you run a 5k or 10k and have obstacles and mud…. in some cases, like the one we did this year…. LOTS OF MUD. They are fun though 🙂
Brrr, 46. It hasn’t gotten quite that cold here yet, but I have to admit the cooler air that has showed up is a little bit of a relief, but can’t we have just a tiny summer intermission instead of a whole long, cold winter? 😉 I’ll definitely be sad to see summer go!
Yeah… I wasnt thrilled with that number Megan 😀 I am not ready for summer to be over….
Nice pictures! It was 55 degrees this morning where I am. It was sooo nice!
My (First) Saturday Snapshot
Must you remind me that fall is getting closer and closer? 😉
I had an AVON event today and thankfully the weather was nice. It was starting to rain when we left but I’m not going to complain.
Have a super weekend!
It’s nice to look back and see what you were doing a year ago. Looks like a lot of good times. I’m glad Fall coming….with cooler weather (although 46 degrees is a bit too much cooler….).
Here’s my Saturday Snapshot.
It is a bit extreme for me 😉
It was so warm and muggy here yesterday we had the windows open all night. This morning was chilly and I had to get out the warm socks and sweatshirt. I’m not ready for this!
Great photos! Isn’t it amazing how fast a year goes? It looks like you all had a wonderful time. I hope the next year is even better!
memorable photos. Did something happened to your left hand in one of those photos?
You’ve got some wonderful memories there, digital photos are so easy for that. The mud run looks particularly intriguing.
Revisiting pictures is a great way to revisit memories. 🙂
Was attending a wedding this week-end….lovely. So glad we live in a day and age of photos♫♪ They sure bring back the memories!
