I have really been enjoying this fall season. The weather has been perfect, the leaves are absolutely gorgeous and it's fun to be outside with the kids. I think this is especially true since we pretty much skipped fall last year after a hot September, a rainy October and a cold November. Plus, I was still trying to settle into a new house, caring for an infant who wasn't sleeping through the night and fighting daily battles of the will with a toddler who wasn't potty-trained yet. Yes, it has been a beautiful fall! Here's some more of what we've been doing outside over the past week...

Emily loves riding her bike in circles around the driveway. She really likes hearing the crunching leaves and gets mad if I try to blow them off the driveway with the leaf-blower. |
 |
| Lincoln loves the Cozy Coupe. He can go both forwards and backwards now. |
 |
| Lincoln also loves crunching the leaves with his lawnmower. |
 |
| It's fun to look at and feel the flowers that are still going strong. |
 |
| This pot hasn't looked this good all year! |
 |
| We started raking leaves. With two ash trees, seven large maples and a locust tree on our property there are LOTS of leaves. |
 |
| Emily has enjoyed playing in the big pile--even in a skirt. Her poor legs were all scratched up at night. I warned her! |
 |
Lincoln prefers to "rake" rather than play in the big pile.
We cleared half of the side yard and ended up with a pile taller and wider than Emily. |
 |
| Even though the mum plant is not currently blooming, our back entrance says "Fall". |

We are also enjoying the leaves, even though they aren't from our trees:). They love to jump in them all the time!
Looks like a lot fun, we've been out an about off and on and I can't believe how warm it's been. So nice and makes for a lovely fall season.
