Fall in New England

Well it's fall in New England. I used to picture it as beuatiful changing leaves and taking walks while wrapped up in a cazy sweater. Now I picture it as being stuck in my house while I wait for the rainy season to end. Since Saturday the temperature has not gotten out of the 50's in either direction and the sun has only shown itself for maybe five minutes. It really kind of sucks right now. The kids and I have been stuck in the house because it's too raw to go outside. I'm getting cabin fever and I'm sure Alexis is too. Luckily Riley is too little know what's really happening.

We did have some excitment yesterday when Toby got out of the back yard. Of course by the time I got the kids dressed and packed up and around the corner to go get him he had already gotten back into the yard. I can say this though it was too cold and wet to drag two kids around in their pjs to find a lost dog.

Oh well, everyone is back home and no one got hurt so I'll count my blessings. And hey, like Annie said, "The sun'll come out tomorrow." Well actually I think the weatherman said Sunday but whose keeping track.
