rain, rain, rain. that's all we've been getting...until today! so i packed marley up and off we went to one of marion's cool old cemeteries. now, i know you texans reading this don't experience a change in seasons, so i did my best to capture the beautiful trees. i think we are peaking here, which is to bad as mom and resa will be here next week. i'm sure we will still have some color though. i've never been good at capturing fall color, but i did my best. i think it is like a grand mountain vista. you can get a good photo of it, but it will never do the real thing justice. marley seemed to really enjoy the outing. i love cemetaries. they're so peaceful. and old ones have such neat artwork. oh yeah, we went for our 8 month wellness check up on thursday. marley is doing great. she seems to have slowed down on the growth, which is nice b/c she might fit into her clothes for more than two weeks. she now weighs 8lbs 15oz, which is up less than 1/2 lb since last time. and she is now 27 inches long, so she only grew a quarter of an inch. the doctor seems to think her teeth will keep coming in at this excellerated rate, so wish us luck! poor thing is chewing on everything. and thru it all, she is still remarkably happy. ben's grandparents came and stayed with us this week. it was wonderful to have them. marley loved them and put on a show, little ham that she is. marley and i went back to the farm on saturday to visit grandma barb. it felt so nice to be there. it's crazy how much i miss it. and especially the time i got to spend with grandma barb. but we will get better about visiting...
