Leaves and Such



Sam loves jumping in the leaves and can't quite get enough of it. Even when his little hands are freezing and his nose is running he's content as a little bug in its rug. We gathered up some really pretty colorful maple leafs and pressed them in a book.














Jillian got in on the act too. She loves running in the yard and climbing our pine tree in the front yard. She didn't know quite what to do about the pile of leaves, but she was a good sport and played with Sam.

This huge pile got even bigger if you could imagine it since all of the neighbors leaves blew in to our yard.

We've spooked out our front porch with everything Halloween. It's nice to have a little porch to decorate and put chairs out to sit on. I think we're fitting in to the neighborhood nicely. We love our ward family and taking walks around the block in a safe quiet neighborhood is like a dream. There are so many community parks right on our doorstep and we think that's pretty cool. We lit a fire in our fireplace tonight and it's made everything cozy and fun while watching our Halloween movies.
