So, what are you all doing this weekend?  I hear there are cooler temperatures in the forecast.  I sure hope so.  We have had so many days of 100+ weather that I'm a wilted Texan.  A cousin of Ben's posted pictures on Facebook of pumpkins.  Pumpkins!  Fall seems like such a foreign concept to me.  Another friend posted a link to a Johnny Appleseed lapbook.  The thought of fall books hasn't even crossed my mind yet.  But, it is September.  And, it's Labor Day weekend.

In all the years Ben has been an active duty soldier, he gets the Friday before a three day weekend off as a training holiday.  It's great.  The children really enjoy having him home for the four days.  Obviously, we are not going to be able to do that now.  It makes tracking holidays harder for me.  There's no Ben is home to look forward to so I tend to not see those types of holidays on the calendar.  

Tomorrow, a friend is taking several of the moms in our homeschool group to the range.  We are practicing with our pistols in preparation for our CHL (concealed handgun license).  I'll take pictures.  I even purchased pink ear protection.  I looked for pink or even purple eye protection, but no such luck for the ones that go over prescription glasses.  

Enjoy your weekend.  I have sewing and shooting to do this weekend.
