Busy

Every day when we pick Jackson up from school we ask, "How was your day?"  And just about every day he has the same answer, "busy".  Because, you know, life is super busy when you're 3.

Life at the Elser house has certainly been busy the past week (hence the lack of blog activity) and it's about to get busier.  Over the next 40 days I will be visiting 4 states (Missouri, Florida, Colorado and Iowa) and spending a total of 18 nights somewhere other than my own bed.  So yeah, lots going on.

But what's kept me burning the midnight oil the past week is a pretty major home improvement project that we're right in the midst of.  And oh my gosh it is so awesome I can hardly wait to be done and show you guys the big reveal.

Here's a hint.

It's not exactly difficult or back breaking work, but it's tedious.  And time consuming.  And I'm really, really ready to be done.  But you know what they say:  if it's worth doing, it's worth doing right.  So I'm trying to be patient and stay the course.  With all of our upcoming travels it may be a while before we're totally done, but you'll be the first to know when we are.

Bear with me if the blog posts are a bit sporadic the next few weeks.  There's no shortage of stories to tell, just not enough hours in the day.  I'll get you caught up soon, I promise.

In the meantime, hope you are all having a fabulous summer.  We're doing our best not to melt here in Kansas as the triple digit days are seemingly endless.  We're expecting a "cool front" later this week - which means it might actually get down to the low 90's.  Lucky us!
