Thanks:

1. Petco. So yesterday I was trying to think of something fun to do with the kids without costing a lot of money. Answer? The pet store. We cruised over to the local Petco and wandered around the store. We watched the dogs getting their hair cut, checked out the birds, the fish, the reptiles, as well as rabits, farats, mice, and guinea pigs. Josh loved it.

2. Our cars. I always say that cars are a necessary evil- but even though they'll never be an investment- I really can't complain too much. We've always had good luck with cars (even our "college" cars never gave us much grief). Our neighbor's transmission just went out on their only vehicle, so it's really made me appreciate the fact that I can hop in the car and run errands without much thought. So thankful that yesterday I made sure to give her a good wash after filling her up with gas. Love your cars and they will love you back?

3. Sunny days. These last couple days have been so beautiful. Warm sun with crisp air. You don't get much of a fall in Utah (it switches from hot to cold so fast) but those few days you do get are gorgeous!
