HAPPY FALL!!!

It is looking like officailly Autumn. I love it. I love the rain, I love the cold, love the leaves and colors, love school, love mittens, loves early nights sitting with popcorn watching movies, and I love every other thing about winter on it's way. So, I took the kiddos out for a walk last night. It was great! We went to the library and got some Thansgiving books and some movies and then went to Dairy Queen. We shared some fries and a slushy and then ordered a Pumpkin Pie Blizzard. Yum! The kids loved it too! We walked from there to the park and picked up leaves the whole way. The kids played and then we picked up more leaves and sticks. Now, this was a beautiful night, sun shining and the air was crisp. About the best night ever NOT to forget the camera. But I did. Probably made it more fun anyway, not thinking of having to take pics.

Today was time to do our craft. This is what I had planned. I am aware that it is hard to see the words and I will work on making that more visible but the kids LOVED doing this. I love days like this! So HAPPY FALL!!!
The kids are very proud of this...
Adam took this pic of me reading to the kiddos last night before bed. One of my very favourite times of every day.
Now all we need is Thanksgiving dinner! YUMMY!!!
