Where is Fall?

Things have been going well for us. Todd is buried deep in homework and staying up late at night these days. Luckily though, Cassandra is feeling pretty normal again and has been cleaning the house like a tornado and trying to take over with Evan in the mornings so Todd can sleep in. Yeah! It's November and yet our cooling is still popping on during the day. It's so crazy how the years tend to get warmer and warmer. We are looking forward to the holidays and getting to travel to see family again.
There are apartment buildings going in behind our house. There has been a lot of digging and leveling going on for weeks. It always looks like nothing is getting done. Today, though, they started digging trenches for water lines all along the fenceline and the big digger they are using vibrates the whole house like an earthquake every time it rolls. Kinda crazy.

We found snake skins in the grass behind our house. Scary! They're probably getting scared into our yard by all of the chaos in the field behind us.
