Just the Other Day

Do you ever wake up and try and remember what day it is?  This year is passing much too quickly.  I have found myself too many times trying to remember what month we are in.  To me it seems as if everything just happened the other day. 

The other day Grandma, Grandpa and Uncle Aaron came to visit.  We rented a house on the beach for a few days.  We collected lots of fun shells.  It was a bit chilly for playing in the ocean for everyone except Oran.  Oran sees the ocean and just cant help but end up in it.  I wish I would have remembered he had my cell phone in his pocket.  Grandma played Polly's lots and lots with Lucy.  I am sad we didn't take any pictures.

The other day Nana, Grandpa and Uncle Will came to visit.  We explored downtown and went on a mice hunt.  There are nine, small, bronze mice hiding along Main Street.  We found all but one. 

The other day we once again became a two car family.  After years of getting by with one car Dan got his own car.  A BMW convertible. 

The other day after having his new car for less than two weeks a co working with a big truck, with mud tires ran over it in the parking lot.  The car had to be towed and had $6000 worth of damage.

The other day we got a rental car to use while Dan's car was in the shop.  A Nissan Armada.  I fell in love with the Empanada as Lucy called it.  We ended up having it for 5 weeks.  In that five weeks we put over 4,000 miles on it.  It was really hard giving it back.  I wish it got better gas mileage so there would be a chance of owning one someday.  I can always dream.

The other day we moved out of our furnished apartment.  Our house has not sold yet so we thought it best to rent.  I love having our own beds again.  I love our little place; it is perfect.

The other day Dan ran the Indianapolis Mini Marathon.  He did it!  We are so proud of him.  It gave him a good feel of what to work on before the next one. 

The other day we registered Oran for kindergarten.  It is hard to believe he will be in school this fall.  I know he is ready.  I remember holding him when he was a month or so old thinking he would be small forever.  Time has gone by so fast.

The other day Dan and I celebrated 8 years of marriage.  I love him more today than I ever have.  I think back at all of our adventures these past years and in so many ways we are different but yet we are the same. 

The other day we went to a little town memorial day festival.  Dan ran in another 5K.  Oran and Lucy loved all of the bounce houses.  We all enjoyed watching the hot air balloons.

I'm pretty sure our whole summer has been a "the other day" type of set up... I can't believe Oran is already starting kindergarten! I'm so excited for him!
