Loving this weather


Yesterday was THE most perfect fall day! Sunny and upper 60's, dry and gorgeous. I decided to take the girls on a nature hike and do some of our homeschooling outdoors. We sat on a bench, read about frogs and then went looking for some in the creek.


After reading, we learned that frogs like to come out at night, and they do hibernate during the winter, so we didn't see any. But that didn't stop the girls from enjoying the walk and looking for holes that frogs might be sleeping in.


We had a picnic lunch with our friends Julie, Ethan and Ryan. After lots of running around, the kids got to make a pumpkin mask craft at the Nature Center.


It was one of those fun days that makes me glad to be a stay-at-home mom. :-)

We hit 70 yesterday but the leaves are rapidly falling. Had them take out the waterfall pump today - so sad.
