Fall leaves



The fallen leaves have been a great source of entertainment for us this fall! We spent lots of time everyday raking leaves, jumping into the piles, laying on our backs and watching leaves fall from the trees, filling recycle bins of leaves and hauling them to the compost out back (she rides IN the bin with the leaves and we call it a 'boat' ride). I can't wait to go sledding with Nevi this winter...she's going to LOVE it!!!!!! Hands down, this has been THE most beautiful autumn we've had in Colorado in the 8 years I've lived here. Usually by this time, end of October, we've had a snowfall already and winter has crashed into our lives, ready or not. Not this year,though. It's been warm, colorful, some days of wind and rain and very fragrant, like leaves/earth/smoke. Amazing.
