Falling Into It

Fall is fun! The weather has been GORGEOUS - warm, sunny most days - the leaves are turning and falling, crisp winds are blowing and it just smells like fall. We had some great playtime outside last night before a corned beef and cabbage dinner with Nana and Papa....

My gorgeous Gerbera from the first graders - blooming again!



The dragonfly that tormented us one night before dinner.

Matthew chopped carrots and handed them out during backyard soccer.

He had some cabbage scraps in there. All this composting is rubbing off on the little ones!

It's Fall! This driveway will be covered with 6 inches of leaves in a few weeks. Hope your shoulder is useable by then, Mike - after all, we did cancel the landscapers so you could do your own raking! :)

I miss bike riding!

Antlers? Andrew in the background, kicking around with Mike.

Isn't he adorable? :)

Matthew decorated his antlers.

According to Andrew, his dad spray painted his hair pink because he was in trouble?!? I don't think so...but, it was pink. His scalp STAYED pink through THREE washings. I finally got 2 good scrubs in, turned the bathwater pink, left a pink ring around the tub - but my boy is back to himself now.

'Tis spider season!

Last rose?
