November Afternoons

November has looked like a lot of this…

raking

Which quickly turns into this…

leaves

leaves 3

leaves2

Which then usually results in this…

tears

Allowing someone to get his share of this…

love

and this!

kisses

We bounce back quickly though…

woah

And Mommy doesn’t mind sneaking a peak at my “Andyman Solution” :) mmhmm…

And then someone gets cold and the snot starts running…

And munchkin rescues Mommy, who was also freezing, and take a minute to remember “the girl” was there too…

Before moving on to, you know, more calm indoor activities like this…

couch

Blessed is the man
who walks not in the counsel of the wicked,
nor stands in the way of sinners,
nor sits in the seat of scoffers;
but his delight is in the law of the Lord,
and on his law he meditates day and night.

He is like a tree
    planted by streams of water
that yields its fruit in its season,
    and its leaf does not wither.
In all that he does, he prospers. – Psalm 1:1-3

~ Becca

Do you spend much time out in the leaves? I feel like it’s not really an optional activity around here :)

    So cute Bec! I just had a heart attack looking at that last picture. You are amazing. Nap time has ended early today and I think we may be headed out to do some leaf pile jumping as well!

      Haha, I know Em. The never cease to amaze me with their physicality and Cal is prompted to do crazier things even earlier because he MUST keep up with his big brother!

    Great way to capture moments in pictures. You told a great story! We have leaves, leaves and more leaves here resulting in hours (yes hours)of raking, jumping and playing. :-)
