New season, new look

Well I decided to do something different with my hair. I tend to go darker in the fall anyways but I wanted something a little funky. So I got it dyed super dark brown with light blonde streaks. It turned out SO CUTE. I have gotten so many compliments on it! I straightened it so the streaks show up better. I wish I had a more clear shot of it though. Here's my new do:




Nothing new around here besides the boys starting school. We have Ian's kindergarten orientation and Quinn's preschool orientation tomorrow. And then Chris leaves for Tampa for 5 days on Wednesday. He wont even be here for Ian's first day of school. =(

I am looking forward to fall now. I was super sad that the summer was coming to an end, but I have come to terms with it (lol) and am now looking forward to all that fall has to offer. Apple orchard, pumpkins, the smell of the fireplace burning, crisp fall air, jackets, leaves, etc. Its what comes after fall that I really cant stand. So not ready for the white stuff yet! I also dont want to lose my tan. Waaaah. This summer has been amazing though. We had some good times and lots of family fun.

In October we will be going to Ohio to visit some relatives. Chris' grandfather isn't doing very well and they are thinking he doesn't have much longer. I'm so sad about this....Chris' grandparents are the closest thing to grandparents that I've ever had. They are my grandparents too. They are such sweet, wonderful people. We are going the weekend the kids are on Fall Break, which also happens to be Grandma & Grandpa's anniversary. It's going to be a tough trip for all of us. Chris' Dad is flying us all there so we dont have to waste all that time driving for such a short trip. *sigh*

I am officially at my pre-pregnancy weight of 155, although after yesterday & today's awesome meals I probably gained a pound or two back. That's nothing a few days at the gym & sticking to my WW points can't fix. 15 pounds until goal! =)

Well thats all for now. I'll be back when I have something more interesting to talk about. =)
