It's (kinda) fall!

This week is what we like to call "birthday week" in the Freeman house.  I only pointed out a couple times that for five days T.J. is four years older than me!  T.J.'s birthday was on Sunday and we celebrated with having some friends over to watch the Notre Dame game Saturday (before realizing it was an off-week and they play USC tomorrow) and then out with friends again Sunday evening.  It was also the birthday of one of T.J.'s classmates so we had quite a seminary crew.  Today is my birthday so we are going out to a nice dinner to celebrate both of us and then we go back to it being my day and maybe out for drinks with some friends post-dinner. :)

Weather is the topic that everyone jokes is brought up when there is nothing else to talk about, but I think a little weather update is appropriate this week.  It is starting to feel a little bit like fall here in Texas.  We've had our windows open a few days this week because it is cooling off overnight.  Now don't get me wrong, it has still gone over 80 during the day each day except one this week (high 77 on Wednesday), but it has been dropping into the high 40s/low 50s at night, which is wonderful open window sleeping weather when we've been used to the 80 degree air conditioner.  The leaves haven't turned yet so it still looks like summer, but I have a feeling it will be happening over the next few weeks.
