I personally would remove the battery and have it load tested to eliminate that variable. If it is the battery then it is a simple fix and with the seasons changing and you guys having cold weather (I live in Arizona btw) it would be my first thing to check and eliminate.
That being said I just recently had a similiar situation happen with my car where the car wouldn't start, I got a faint click and the lights weren't dim on the dashboard... so off I went to have my three month old battery checked and it turned out to be fine. I then narrowed it down to my crusty starter and sylenoid (my car came from New Joisey) and I went ahead and pulled my starter off and took it to a local guy to rebuild it. Sure enough it was the sylenoid going bad so he replaced the sylenoid, rebuilt the starter, repainted the case... $59.00
The overall job took me about 3 hours; 2 to remove and 1 to put back. I can link you to a DIY writeup I did if you figure out that this is the problem.
