Seasons...Wow! Something we haven't really experienced for a long time. We have absolutely loved the fall this year. I remember dreading the first feeling of jacket weather when I grew up here, but now that I've been away for so long...I LOVE IT! We drink hot chocolate, collect and play in the leaves, we (against all of our feet's desires) wear socks.
At the first sign of the leaves changing, we went on a nature walk with the whole fam...Grandma, papa, Tawnya, us and all the kids...just around mom's block. We collected so many varieties of leaves that were all so beautiful. So, that was a very fun outting. Then, the next day, we made them into placemats with clear contact paper. The girls had very specific oppinions about their leaves, color and placement. We even made a mat for Sean. :0) It made a great table decor for a few months. This picture was taken when the placemats were almost 8 weeks old. :0) A fun project I highly recommend to everyone.
