welcome to fall

i have the greatest husband ever. need proof?

last spring, fox showed a 1-hour premiere of glee, which is about a high school glee club and is billed as a "musical comedy". read: very much my type of show, but scott groaned when i described it to him and told him how much i loved the premiere. anyway, just now, scott was setting up new tivo season passes online, asked me when community (nbc's new office-esque sitcom about a community college that looks hilarious) starts, then asked, "do we want to tivo glee?" i responded with a giant smiley and approximately ten exclamation points after my "yes" (we're on im at work), but seriously, isn't that sweet? not only that he remembered four months later that it's a show i'm interested in watching, but then that he proactively offered to set up a tivo for me - aww. it's the little things, i tell you.

we've had a very busy but super fun five days! this weekend was andrew's wedding in wisconsin/mini-college reunion. we flew in on saturday, out on monday, and in the middle had a wonderful time seeing some great old friends and catching up with people that were in our group of friends in college but that we haven't stayed in close touch with. it was really amazing to me how easy it felt to fall back into life with them. natalie and axel were adorable, and it was so fun getting to see two of my closest girlfriends from college as moms. it was crazy, though, because i think saturday night a bunch of us were crowded around a table for dinner, and i realized that no one lives in the same place anymore - we have people in birmingham, boston, chicago, portland, minneapolis, milwaukee, north carolina. i know everyone lives in the city they live in for a reason, but i have to confess i would love it if all of them wanted to pick up and move to denver. (which i say very selfishly, because i don't want to leave denver to move anywhere else - especially if that elsewhere has humidity. eesh. two days of that was enough.) anyway, it was a really great time, and i'll be getting pics up on facebook as soon as the photo uploader starts working again.

on monday, we flew back to denver and drove straight from the airport up to breck to hang out with scott's parents and sisters for a few days - also fun. we went hiking with them the last two days, then would get back to the condo and play yahtzee and spades and watch movies. very relaxing. for me, at least - i thought his sister wendy would have a nervous breakdown from the tension of our spades games!
