For the last four months, Matt has been on his "research" rotation. This is a four-month block of time where he pretty much worked regular-people-hours in a basic science lab at the University. He was doing research on the development of tumor-markers for head and neck squamous cell cancer screening.... if you were wondering.
;) Anyway, research was AMAZING. Matt was usually still home when I left for work in the morning and then was home when I got back in the evening. He took care of Jake. He ran errands. He made dinner. He got to do normal things like read books and watch tv. We could meet up for lunch together. We were able to take random trips on the weekends! We both LOVED it. But, alas, all good things must come to an end. (not sure if I really believe that... but it's true in this case.)
He went back to the real world today. And we are both so very sad.

Last wednesday, during our first snow storm of the year, I was off so we went to Chick-fil-A one last time. in the middle of the day. here we are enjoying the amazingness.
{I'm sure you can ignore the fact that his mouth is full of chicken sandwich.}
Anyway, we have been enjoying the Colorado autumn. It's been a beautiful, long, mild fall until last week when we had six inches of snow. They're expecting another 5-10 inches tonight!
another recent highlight was that I got to see my sister this last weekend! she is very pregnant and only has about 7.5ish weeks till her due date! so exciting. and such a cute preggo lady. :)
