Things I'm looking forward too.....

Now that my life has reverted back to it's old reliable self, I realized there are some things I'm definitely looking forward too.  

1. Fall:  I love fall.  The cool days and cooler nights.  The color on the trees.  The crisp mornings as I take my kids to school.  It is always so  welcome after the heat intense summers we have here.  
2. Ok, this one I have mixed feelings about.  Mostly I am happy football season comes.  Mr. G is mostly in a great mood.  Except when Dallas looses and Tony Romo stinks.  But I love getting together with the Burke Family to watch Sunday afternoon games, the friendly rivalry Dan and Nick have.  Patriots vs. Dallas.  And I really do enjoy watching college football.  Our family's fave team?  That would be the USC Trojans.
3. I am looking forward to begin cooking again.  I have been taking a cooking hiatus for a long while and I am anxious to get into the kitchen and learning some new and healthy dishes for my family.   I am also pretty excited to try all the new cupcake recipes I have in my new cookbooks, and all my new baking goodies.   So if I show up at your house with cupcake treats don't be surprised, I need to find families to give my new creations to.
4. I am so happy summer is over and our blackout days are over at Disneyland.  Now that the kids are back in school all day I have been able to take just Sophie in the mornings for some mommy and Sophie time.  And I love d-land in the mornings.  I have never gone at those times before, I've never been able to.  And I love it.  Anyone who wants to join us on a morning, give me a call.
5. Last I'm looking forward to going back to the gym.  Our summer has been so crazy and stressful I am embarassed to admit I put on some unwanted pounds.  So I am anxious to get back into shape.  I like to sweat and work hard and I've missed it this summer.  
There's my list.  What's yours?

That's a good list! I wish I could go to Disneyland in the morning, no fair. I would say I'm excited for fall as well, and to make Paula Dean's pumpkin bars.
