Time to Shave!

Fall is in full swing and the colors outside are awesome.  As we passed over the wolf river bridge a week or so back, the leaves and reflection off the water was stunning.  I went back there and to Shelby Farms last Saturday morning to snag a few Fall pictures.  Those are available in the Photography album on the photos page if you’re interested.  They can’t be posted in the November album according to the wifey.  She says those albums are for family and friends only.  “No one wants to see pictures of random birds and stuff.”  Yes, that was in quotes.

No Shave November is finally over.  I know, I know…November is still here.  However, No Shave November ran from 10/16 to 11/16.  It was to benefit St. Jude.  It was the first time I’ve ever grown facial hair.  Laura seemed to like it.  I didn’t figure she would.  She actually had mixed emotions about shaving it.

All is going pretty well here in Simons land.  We’ve all caught a little bug at some point or another.  I’m the one with it right now.  Nothing major, I just feel under the weather.  Its unfortunate, becuase I need to be out running.  I’m supposed to be running in the St. Jude half marathon in two weeks and my running has been next to nil due to work and darkness.  Its tough to get up in the mornings and usually by the time I get off, the last thing I want to do is run.  Luckily, work looks like it may be slowing down some.  I really just hate the winter.  I love the cold, but I hate the darkness.  I seem to get lethargic when it gets dark early.

We took some pretty cute pictures of Haley the other day with a pumpkin.  Unfortunately, also due to it getting dark so early, the only time we’ve had to take them lately was during lunch when the light is horrible.  For taking them at noon, though, they turned out okay.
