back outside

Last week we were indoors thanks to a round of family shared flu (well, Damian escaped).

NOW we are back into the groove and enjoying my favorite season, fall. On a bike ride today we spotted a tiny tree that said goodbye to all of the leaves pictured here. The boys played in, rolled in and counted the leaves. They can not wait until all the trees say goodbye to their leaves and we can make a humongous (Ambrose's new favorite word) pile to jump in.

Meanwhile I'm thinking of picking apples, apple pies, homemade applesauce . . .
