It's the most wonderful time of the year!!

Yes, folks, that's right. Tonight marks the return of the NFL season, 2008-2009 edition. I am so so so excited. I am watching the Redskins/Giants game right now, even though I could care less about either team, just because I'm so excited that regular season football is back! The only thing better than that is college basketball, but since that is very rare to see up here since I don't have ESPN, I'll just be happy with the awesome NFL coverage we get. I can't wait for Sunday night.....Bears at the new Lucas Oil Stadium to take on my Colts....and Marvin should be back and healthy. I've fielded two fantasy football teams this season, so we'll see how I do with that. I'm home alone tonight since Gary had to take a trip to Detroit this morning, so I've been catching up with people on the phone and webcam, which was nice.

The Labor Day holiday was great--we got to see almost the entire family! We spent some time at Wawasee with my whole side of the family, and stopped to see Gary's brother and family in Fort Wayne on the way back to Toledo. Gary's mom made my favorite dinner (Roast and potatoes!!!) and we hung out with Gary's sister and family.....Luke and Lauren, my new niece and nephew, let me have a mini photo session with them, which was really fun....I'll have to post some pictures of that once I get them photo shopped. For now, I'm off to bed--well, to read in bed. I started that Twilight series that is supposed to be the next Harry Potter like phenomenon (there are four books out, and the movie will be out this winter.) So far, so good. The first book was awesome, I'm getting close to halfway through the second, and I love them. If you're looking for a fun and easy read, go for those.

I'm looking forward to this weekend--Gary and I are going to make our first trip to the Toronto Zoo! I am planning to take lots of pictures so I can practice my photography skills......I'm getting a bit obsessed with taking pictures. Oh well. :) G'Night.
