Fall {at our house}

It is Fall here in Michigan. The leaves have gone from red to yellow to brown in a matter of days.

Come on outside and we'll show you. Yes, we'll wait until you have your jacket zipped up. It is chilly!  : )

Our flag

Our front door

Our seating area

{when my mom was getting ready to board her airplane home, she pushed a $20 bill into my hand and told me to buy some flowers for the porch.}

Mission completed. Thanks, Mom!

Our pumpkin

Our house... It is finally starting to feel like home, a place with memories, albeit only a few.

Our big tree in our teeny tiny front yard

Our street..

it always reminds me of the scene in "Father of the Bride" when Steve Martin is driving home in his little convertible.

Our neighbors directly across the street

Harbor likes to say that our house is really, really tall.

David reminds us that homes here have a steep roof pitch due to heavy snow fall. Oh. Yes, well there is that.  : )

We were on a hunt for perfect Fall leaves

We hunted near and far and couldn't help but to wander into our neighbor's yards.

 Please and thank you.  : )

Our entire street seems to have come alive with color

Though the wind is a bit nippy, we really can't complain.

Yes, we are pretty happy in our new home, so far away from all we know.

                                    

We gathered our bounty and headed indoors.

To create beautiful masterpieces for the 'fridge!

We both got a kick out of doing "leaf rubbings" and it put us in such a wonderful mood.

Sometimes as parents we need to remember that our children need us to create things with them, using our hands.

We had a lot to tell Daddy when he came home!

We had a very busy day, hard at "work."  : )
