So here it is, October 25, and Halloween is less than a week away. Leah has had the house decorated for a month now, and we're preparing to greet all the trick-or-treaters again this year. Only one problem- it's 80 degrees outside, and it still looks more like summer than fall. We had a few colder nights that slowed down the growth of the grass, but half our trees still have green leaves on them, and other than the maple trees I don't think we'll even have foliage this season. I've included a few pics below to show how non-autumnal it is out here in Kansas. Note the geraniums are still in bloom, and most of our summer ground flowers are still going. Heck, our morning glory just starting blooming about 2 weeks ago. What a weird place.
As far as the rest of life goes, we are both neck-deep in schoolwork. I have 7 major projects due before thanksgiving break, and Leah and I are both appreciative of the few moments we get together right now. Leah is getting her classes ready for their presentations, and walks around on Tuesday nights practicing her songs for Wednesday morning toddler-times. I find myself singing the songs while I'm working in the office, and it's rather embarrassing. That's about it for now. We hope the fall season finds you all well and in good spirits. Enjoy the weather, before winter sets in and we start counting the days until spring comes again.

I hope both of you are doing well. You haven't posted anything in a few months, but I know you are very busy. Leah, what is your email address?
