Well hello there blog!

I am a much worse blogger than I thought I would be, ha!  That being said, we have been very busy lately!!

Here's a rundown...

My brother just moved here from Texas!!  We're so happy to have him close by!  My parents helped him move and when they got here it was the first time the 4 of us "Beechers" have been together in quite a while!  He's been working and saving up for a car, so in the meantime we're getting real familiar with the CAT bus.  (Central AR Transit!)  It's pretty spotty, so John and I do a lot of driving to and fro also.  I think my brother likes it here, he's been really fascinated by the obsession with college football (he got here right on time for that!)  The Razorbacks have a game in town today and he was cracking up at ALL the cars we saw with like, 4 window flags per car!  It gets pretty intense.

Our poor sweet hound dog has been licking his...rear...a lot lately.  Like, a LOT.  So we took him to the vet and he had an "abscessed anal gland"....EW!   We have an awesome vet that we love.  And we're so glad that they are trained to handle stuff like that.  Oh my.  Still gives me the shivers.  He actually had to go in twice this week for "procedures".  Poor guy.  He's a trooper.

The weather has been GOOOORgeous!!!  I mean, ideal.  Windows open, long walks, sighing at the perfect blue sky.  So, that limits the time that I want to blog.  I always thought I was a summer person, but once I became a grown up, and ya know, started paying my own utilities, I decided spring, fall and winter are far superior!  Also since I'm not in school, it doesn't hold the same appeal.  And then there's the strapping-your-kid-into-a-boiling-hot-carseat thing.  Boo.  So bring it on FALL!!!!!

Will and I saw a rainbow tonight on our walk!  It was so pretty and vivid too!  John was doing yard work so we walked home as quickly as possible to make sure Daddy got to see it too!  I think this is the first time Will's ever seen a rainbow that he's actually been old enough to know what it was.  Pretty sweet moment.

Alrighty, well hope it's less than 4 weeks before I drop back in, but you know, I'm sure you're all really busy too.  Here's a cute pic to leave you with....
