September School Days

September:  A month of saying good-bye to old summer favorites and welcoming new beginnings.  The heat of the summer begins to wane in Albuquerque and hopes of that hint of fall begin.  This September marks the rainiest, most humid weather that I have seen in Albuquerque in the almost nine years that we've lived here.  While we needed the rain, I was once again reminded of why I love desert living so much!

Here are just a few random pictures I was able to squeeze in while homeschooling, driving to ballet rehearsals and tennis matches, teaching Allison to drive, preparing for co-op and Adventures classes, running the million errands that threaten to over take my day, and stopping at the end of each day to feed my birds and thank God for my beautiful family.

Whoa!  That balloon got big in a hurry!

I think this Robin has eaten quite enough in his chubby little lifetime.
