Fall 2012

Trying to catch up on some pictures and things going on. Also I am cutting out facebook a lot so this is a way for me to keep things documented, plus someday I am hoping to make a book out of my blog...someday. Anyways we had some fun this fall since it stayed warm for so long! We have a lot of trees around our house so we get lots of leaves. The kids love it, not sure how much Dave likes it when it comes time to clean up....

We discovered a fun new way to play in them....snowing leaves!!! Basically Dave shakes a branch and all the leaves fall down, super fun!

 We also carved pumpkins this year. If it was up to me we would just leave them as they are and not deal with the mess! Because of course mom gets the clean up job. But Evelynn was very insistent that we carve, so we waited until daddy could help. They each drew a picture of what they wanted their pumpkin to look like and Dave went to work. Being the perfectionist he is, it took a very very long time but they were pretty cool in the end. The kids didn't like cleaning them out but I told them that was part of carving so they had to do it!

 Ben doesn't like his picture taken......
