Fall is here!

Even though we don't have a tree in our front yard we still get to have all the fun that fall brings thanks to all the trees around us. Since today was a nice warm autumn day they took full advantage of it. They had dad rake the leaves and then they got to have all the fun. Today they were nice enough to wait for mom to grab the camera so I could capture the fun!

This is Porters first year that he has enjoyed playing in the leaves. Last year he just tried to eat the leaves. He love to dive right into them and swim around. He is our adventurous one. Landen really loves that Porter likes to be covered in them. Landen will let you cover him up in them, but he would prefer to cover someone else up in them.


They were having so much fun in the leaves they thought that Hattie needed to do some playing in them also.


Since Porter loves being covered in leaves he thought that Hattie would also enjoy it. Notice in the second picture the little hands at the bottom of the picture, those would be Porters hands. Look at all the fun Hattie is going to have growing up with 2 big brothers! (Don't worry I was snapping pictures continually so the leaves were only on her for a few seconds before Ty could move Porters hands and get Hattie up) Hattie was awake, but the leaf pile was in the sunlight so she closed her eyes and wouldn't open them for the picture. (I can't blame her it was bright!) We had such a fun time! Thanks for raking the leaves Ty!!

The pictures are great. I am glad that you had a nice warm day. It has been cold here and it even snowed some but did not stick in the valleys just the mountains. It should get better after the weekend. I sur hope so because the deer hunt is next weekend. I can not believe how big the kids are getting. I love and miss you guys. I hope to see you soon.
Love Tammy
