Raking the Leaves Part II






Here is our second attempt at raking leaves. Our neighbor Jack decided to join in the fun. Needless to say, the leaves are still there.

Halloween!













This year, we met up over at Laura and Brian's house to take pictures before the kids went trick-or-treating. We were so lucky to have such a beautiful day! When we finally did go trick-or-treating, Drew surprised us all--after we rang the doorbell and the man answered the door, he ran right into his house! Daddy had to run in after him. This year we made it to about 5 houses, which is fine with me. We were able to come home, visit a couple neighbors' houses, and then sit outside with pizza to pass out candy and talk with our neighbors.

Fall Festival










Every year in my classroom we have a fall festival. There are crafts, games, and fall themed-snacks. Parents come in to help out and the kids have a great time. Once everything is running smoothly, I have a great time, too.

Pumpkin Carving




This year, Drew helped carve the pumpkins. He didn't hesitate to reach right in and pull out the gunk! Unfortunately, we didn't get any pictures of the final products!

Hot Chocolate

Drew tasted his first hot chocolate today. His expression pretty much sums up the experience.

Fall Fun





Since it was such a nice fall day, we decided to take some time to rake the mountain of leaves in our front yard today. Too bad Drew liked to take the leaves OUT of the bag, instead of put them in.
