…I guess the real question should be "Where have I been?"<\/p>\n

The month of October has been a blur for the Kickerts.  <\/p>\n

At the beginning of the month we took a quick trip to Colorado and Utah<\/a> as a family.  It was the first real vacation Beth and I have taken since we went to DC back in 2005.  It was also Mikayla’s first flight (we used it as a bit of a test run for the 22 hour plane ride coming up for us in July).<\/p>\n

We flew into Denver and spent the day at the Children’s Museum<\/a>.  Later that day we walked around downtown and tracked down some ice cream.  The next day we visited a cool place called the Butterfly Pavilion<\/a> and headed up to Fort Collins.  Once our "city trips" were done we headed to Rocky Mountain National Park<\/a> and then the next day traveled to Moab Utah and hiked around Arches National Park<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Right after returning to Kentucky I got back in the car and took a "quick" trip up to Northern Wisconsin \/ Upper Peninsula of Michigan to visit with my parents who just moved there.  While we didn’t have much planned, we did visit the "mysterious" Paulding Lights<\/a> and did quite a bit of paddling on the small lakes up there.<\/p>\n

On top of all the travelling, we have been making some big personnel adjustments at work and I have been prepping for our annual charge conference at church<\/a>.<\/p>\n

It seems the month just started, but it is already over.  On Friday we will have our annual Halloween Bash<\/a> and then we will moving into November.<\/p>\n

It is crazy to think how quick months go by, especially since we only have 9 more until we leave the states for a decade or so.  C’est la vie.<\/p>\n
