It's finally fall!

It really didn't feel like it the past couple of days. Our inside thermostat read 84 yesterday and 82 today. Side note, if we would have had air growing up our mother would have been nicer to us! But anyway, it's been really warm the past couple of days. Tonight it was perfect so we went outside after dinner and raked a pile of leaves. You know, Landon could jump in a pile of 20 leaves and be absolutely thrilled with that. He just loves the "idea" of jumping in a pile of leaves! But I'm all about trying to get it as big as possible.
The other day, I started a craft project with Noah consisting of finding leaves and gluing them onto a piece of paper that is cone shaped. Then it's time to look for acorns and fill the cone. Well, our leaves wouldn't really stay glued on, but upon inspection tonight quite a few of them are holding on, maybe for a temporary ride, but a ride nonetheless. We finished the project and sat it out on the table on the front porch. We'll see if anyone notices our attempt. And by anyone, I wasn't really referring to the squirrels, but that is quite possible. They love our trees. We love watching them. Maybe they'll come up to the table, have a seat and eat dinner! It happened with the popcorn last week on the back step!
