So long, summer...

Remember me? It's been so long since I've posted here that I had a hard time figuring out how to post! Our summer ended up being incredibly eventful. I bet we made up for the years past tenfold. One big thing I learned this summer: I still love camping, in any capacity; Rick decided he will never tent camp again. I am campaigning for an RV around here. We are miles away from what constitutes a reasonable RV expectation. Think of Rick's idea as "home away from home" and mine as "we are still roughing it" and you have the perfect checkmate. Honestly, even talking bout a luxury item such as an RV is a good indication that things are looking up for us.
But now that summer is over, we may have to shelve the RV debate and move onto meatier matters such as the many commitments our daughter's school has managed to cram into one school year. My head is spinning with all the changes around Sophia starting Kindergarten. Kindergarten of today is so different from Kindergarten of my day. I would not be the least bit shocked if I find a college application in her folder by mid-year, because the things these kids are expected to learn is no joke. Although, I am proud to say that I am confident Sophia will handle whatever they dish out. And with that said, I'll leave you with a first day of Kindergarten photo and promise not to be such a stranger.
