As Fall "Leaves" us

As fall leaves us behind we are excited to see (and jump in and throw and stomp on) all the beautiful leaves that have fallen. Good thing my friend Melissa had her new cell phone to capture the moment with her mini-camera...quality turned out pretty good ! My hard drive has just died and so my blog has been in hibernation. It's fun to have pictures emailed to me so I can have something to report about. I hope everyone is as excited about Christmas as we are. Now that Taylor is old enough to get the whole Santa thing, we have a new excitement in our home. And, a new threat. Santa's elves have been watching her every move. Last night she wasn't eating her dinner very well and Tim asked her if he needed to call Santa on the phone and let him know about her behavior. She started crying thinking about Santa taking a present away. Tim felt pretty bad about that afterwards. I guess we didn't realize how much she believes.

Taylor playing in a huge piles of leaves we found at Royer Park.

Taylor and her friend Madeline had a great time throwing leaves at eachother, jumping into the pile and guarding their pile from other kids.

Kennedy and Mom loved it too!
