Leaves

It's that time of year again and lots of leaves are falling.  Too many in fact or for the kids it was just right to play in.  We couldn't get the pile high enough for Ben's standards, but we managed to make it taller than him on occasion at least.





Do you see a Ben in there?
 

At first Ash wasn't too sure of it, but the more she saw her brother having fun, the more she jumped in and enjoyed.





Playing together




Based on this pic you would think Ben was done and needed a nap, but that's never the case for him.  I was lucky enough though to capture this pic where he looks content and resting, but it really only lasted maybe 5 seconds tops.

Pumpkin Patch


We went to the pumpkin patch this past weekend and it was a good adventure as always.  Our favorite local place has become Johnson Farms and they've redone parts of the place.  There is plenty for the kids to do and pumpkins are cheap (but you do have to pay to get in which brings it back to normal pricing to some degree).  It was a little chilly and muddy at first, but the rain boots were a success and it warmed up for playtime.
