What Autumn Has Brought

September was so busy and so fast, and now October is half over as well. These weeks just keep speeding by, and I feel like I'm playing a lot of catch up lately. Such is life, I suppose. That said, Autumn is bringing a whole bundle of new opportunities, adventures, and ideas!

The weather here is lovely, other then a few random one off days of either 80* weather or 30* weather (oh Colorado), so I'm doing work on the porch whenever possible, enjoying the mild 60s and 70s. I've been doing a lot of subbing lately too, teaching a few special classes/workshops (Introduction to Yoga, Yoga & Wine), but this week I'm teaching less since I'm Mama is in town! Can't wait to tell you all about that after she heads home. Lets just say we are definitely making the most of our Autumn Break.

A big recent change for us (all) was Gwen's new addition...

Can you see it? Probably not, that's the beauty of Invisalign!

Gwen went in a week and a half ago to get her first tray put in, and to pick up all 37 trays! We took a little peek at the last one, and we're all so excited to imagine the state of her mouth when this is all over. Look wise I'm sure it will be nice, but this decision was all about the health and longevity of her adult teeth, and trust me, this was so so necessary. The first visit was so hard, and the first few days were a huge learning curve, but we are now settling into a bit of a rhythm with it. Figuring out how to balance getting enough food into her body, allowing her to eat enough times a day, while still having those trays in the necessary 22 hours per day.

What else? Last weekend, we all decided a fun little impromptu trip was in order, so we hopped in the car Sunday morning and jetted off into the mountains. We headed to Frisco, about 1.5 hours away, taking one of the passes to get there, and enjoyed some beautiful view and amazing patches of aspens.

We ate a delicious, relaxed lunch, then headed back home for me to teach. It was a beautiful day. I definitely want to spend more time in Frisco.

Sometimes Gwen and I roam to far places so often that we forget to explore our own backyard, which is absolutely beautiful. We're enjoying a lot more of that this week as well.

Teaching a Restorative class that night was such a lovely way to end the weekend.

What has your Autumn brought so far?
