Enjoying all that fall brings!

Last night we had some friends come over to carve pumpkins. We all had a great time. Nathan carved Molly's pumpkin for her. He tried to make it look like her (big eyes, big mouth!).
As they were leaving, the kids started playing in the leaves. This is Lee sitting in our very small pile of leaves!
The next day we got a phone call asking if they could come play in the leaves again. Here is our afternoon of leaves...



We raked up all the leaves in the street, as well as the leaves from 3 neighbors lawns! The pile was enormous and we had a great time!


Sam, Alaina, Lee, Mikayla, Rebekah, and Molly in our HUGE pile of leaves!

Leaves were always so much fun as a kid...now they are just a chore. It was great to remember how much fun simple things can be!

It's great how having kids makes everything new again. It works with grandchildren too. :) Thanks for the pictures.

It’s amazing how much Molly has changed since we last saw her. Her blue eyes are amazingly beautiful. I can’t wait to see her again.
