Summer Fun

We've had a fun and very eventful summer - this would be the reason for only one post to the blog currently. We moved into our new house on July 25 so we're almost 2 months into the new place and loving it! Teagan has met some wonderful friends and she's having a great time getting to know them. Teagan is also enjoying the new yard with the swingset and bugs. You heard right, I said BUGS! This child has no fear (with the exception of spiders) and she's been collecting bugs/critters that hop, fly or chirp and housing them in her bug catcher. I'm not sure where she gets her passion of bugs, it certainly is not from me!

I've added a few pictures of her prized critters to this blog. We're still having some great weather despite it being the end of September so we're on our way out to enjoy the last few weeks of sunshine.

We're starting to get ready for fall with mums and pumpkins so we'll see you in the fall!

What's in a blog...?

Did you know that the word 'blog' was the top word of 2004? Really, it's true! The word even entered the mainstream Merriam-Webster dictionary in 2005 with the following definition"

"A web site that contains an online personal journal with reflections, comments and often hyperlinks"

So, if you're like me you thought to yourself "Wow, blogs have existed since 2004 - what have I been doing and where have I been?" Truth be told, I've been raising a beautiful little girl (Teagan Rose) with my wonderful husband, Ryan.

I'm not sure what attracted me to the world of blog - well, yeah, I do know - I've read a few and have been enjoying keeping up with blogs of friends and acquaintances from long ago. Several weeks ago I thought I would give it a shot and here's my first post. I'm not sure how motivated I'll be to provide frequent updates in my "online personal journal....with hyperlinks" but I'm willing to give it a whirl.

But since it's such a beautiful day outside and we're new to the neighborhood - we're going to head out and meet the new neighbors. Maybe I'll have some words of wisdom or hyperlinks after the neighborhood meet and greet.

I'm sure you'll still be online, staring at your screen waiting anxiously.
