Fabulous Fall Day

Fall is probably my favorite season - although here in Nearly Canada, it is a rather short season. The leaves indeed change to their beautiful colors - but then we get a windy day (which come often here) and the leaves are shaken from the trees, leaving the trees standing naked for the next 6 months. It was quite possibly a perfect Fall day here today. There was hardly a cloud to be seen, bright, sunny, blue skies, a light breeze, 65 degrees - and most of the trees still have their leaves. Just gorgeous! We played outside a lot today. Went for a long walk and just soaked in the last few days of glorious Fall before the snow starts to fall.

Obed loves to drive in the back yard. This is his Fonz impersonation. "Heyyyyyy."
Ezra shot a lot of hoops. He told me today he was number, "five-zero. That's number 50 mommy." He then proceeded to count to 50, but got bored after 39, so he quit.
Obed doesn't mind sitting in the grass so much anymore - especially when there are leaves to play with and brothers to watch.

And what better way to end the day than to jump into a freshly raked pile of leaves?
