Fall Fun

Fall is my favorite time of the year. North Carolina has amazing Falls. We have great weather and beautiful leaves. We have a 5 huge trees in our yard that keep us busy in leaf weather. I usually just let a majority fall before I get out the rake and blower. The kids love this because they love to jump in the leaves. Mr Richard, our neighbor, blows our front where it touches his grass, but I think he does that because he loves his backpack blower:)

Bennett and I have been going out and playing in the leaves after lunch.

Here he is picking the leaves out of his rake.







Sweet boy!


Stomping the leaves. Why do all kids love this sound? Actually, I guess I like this sound as well:)


The girls had Friday off from school. We had a fun morning and then headed out to play in the leaves before nap time. I knew we would be on leaf duty on Saturday and wanted to get one last play day in!

Jumping. Bennett can't jump yet, but he can bounce:)


So happy to have his sisters playing with him.




Leaf confetti! It is so fun to have a day like this with them!






Bennett had to be a part, although he wasn't too sure about it.

Now they are trying to rake them back into a pile to jump some more.




Now he's getting into this throwing thing



"Who are you looking at?"


Really into it now!


Joiner is trying to nail him with leaves. I had to keep asking them to throw them up and not directly at him!

Grumpa let us borrow his backpack blower and the leaves are now in a nice pile on the street for the leaf vacuum to come. I think Bennett loves this truck more than the leaves themselves!

Happy Fall!
