It's Autumn Time!

What's so great about raking up 30+ bags of leaves on Saturday? 

Well, for one thing, autumn leaves provide great inspiration for art projects....

Plus all that raking gives them a big itch.....


to run and jump  geronimo-style into them....


and that itch never is quite satisfied, until someone starts tossing the leaves up into a giant leaf storm.



Then there's the fact that autumn leaves make a great backdrop for pictures...
which means that Lara gets to go crazy with the camera!                                       

And one last thing:  Let's not forget that bags of leaves make a perfect setting....

for an impromptu Barefoot Clarinet Concerto on the Sidewalk.

  1. I remember loving to jump in leaves as a child :)

    The fall leaves really are a good backdrop for pictures. The pictures turned out well!

    Oh and Emma didn't play her clarinet for us on Thanksgiving. She'll have to play for me another time.
