Fall!

The kids have been (impatiently) waiting for "fall"--the real fall, when the leaves actually fall off the trees. We have 2 big trees, with TONS of leaves, so the day finally came and we had a bunch of leaves in our front yard! We raked them up so they could jump in them...

Action shot of Jodee, and enjoying the pile of leaves:

Dylan jumping in, and smiling for the camera:

Dustin "superman"! ~and where is his body?

We had fun!

We also went to the National Cowboy and Western Heritage Museum for their last free day of the year, and waited for Dustin to get out of school so he could go too. Here are the three kids in front of the big statue:
This was Dustin's favorite statue:
Dressing up as cowboys and cowgirls--look at how they stood for the pic--too funny!
Sitting on saddles, and of course, Dylan wanted to be touching the longhorn for the picture!
Our friends were their with us, that's the extra kiddo to the left:

I'm glad Dustin and his friend got to go with us this time. Being in 2nd grade is tough, when mom takes the other kids to do fun things in the mornings!
