Leaves

One beautiful Saturday in early November our family spent time outside in the leaves. I think leaves are a lot more fun when you are a kid. Drew did not enjoy cleaning them out of the gutters (which he has to do way too often). But the boys spent hours playing in the pile in front of our house. They wrestled for over an hour and NEVER CRIED or got carried away and never needed parental intervention. Praise God for making leaves and giving our family a few hours of pure fun.



This is what playing looks like at our house....











For those of you who only have girls...the boys are not fighting. They are having a blast together.

Ben finally rides a horse

Ben has been asking to ride a horse for months now. So during our church's Fall Festival, I gave Drew the one goal of getting Ben on a horse. Drew is not a big fan of large animals, so I am grateful for his willingness to help out while I was running some games during the festival.

Speaking of running...Noah didn't bother wasting time riding the horse but instead ran from game to game collecting as much candy as possible.

Speaking of candy...both of the boys raked in the candy over Halloween. They each have a gallon size zip lock bag full of candy (and that is after I took out all of my favorite things).
