October already? Friday October 1

Want some homemade pizza?

Well, the blog has taken a back seat to all that's changed and all that's going on at the new homestead. No excuse, I know. I'm still collecting articles to enlighten and entertain! I'll link them below.

September was a very busy month for me. Fantasy football kicked off with the start of the NFL season. It's Week Four already and my team is terrible. I guess I can handle that since I won the whole thing last year, but it's going to make for a long season and depressing Sundays. Doesn't help that the Redskins took the great Week One win over the Cowboys and turned it into a choke job and butt kicking the next two weeks. Ugh.

We all went down for a camping trip to Bloomington last weekend. IU played a night game on Saturday vs. Akron, so we camped at Paynetown State Recreation Area on Friday and Saturday nights. Rowan loved it. She was very excited to be camping and sleeping in a camper. I think she liked that we were all together in the same area. IU won to move to 3-0 on the season. Michigan comes in tomorrow, so we'll see where they truly stand as a football team tomorrow evening.

The 12th Sheridan Invitational was in the middle of September. That always makes for a busy and hectic time. 34 golfers teed it up with just a few sprinkles that day. For the party that evening, there were a few tense moments with the bonfire. With 20 foot flames, you could see it from US27 which is about a half mile from the house! I don't think we'll be doing fires that big again...

Added some more photos to the Picasa site for these events. I've got a few to add from the camping, but the August, September, and Farm/House albums all have updates in them.

Sheridan Stables is moving along nicely, and has their own blog now too. We have power and all the heavy construction is done. The newer pasture stalls still need to be finished up, but we could add more horses. Right now we have 3: Della, Summer, and our boarder Java. We got the pasture seeded with pasture grass, so the horses are on the riding arena ground for the next 5 weeks. We're already looking into getting some of the farmland in the back turned into pasture next spring. We need more area if we're going to have more horses!

Haven't been out to see any new movies in a long time! There's quite a few coming up we'd like to check out, so time to get the movie night back up and running. The reviews are still linked to the main SpydeysWebb page along with the movies we'd like to see in the near future.
