Fall fun

We have been enjoying our fall season so much! The fall is very short here so we are making sure to enjoy every bit of it. 
Last week I got the kids each a small pumpkin to carve. They each did so good with their pumpkin. One thing having two small kids has taught me is that everything doesn't have to be (and most likely won't be) perfect. We let the kids create their very own pumpkin. Besides cutting the tops off so they can play with the "guts" We really didn't help much at all. 
Lance used his safe knife and did so good at cutting out eyes all by himself! 
For some reason I didn't take pictures of the finished products. We will be doing pumpkins again very soon so no worries. This was just practice.

Yesterday the lawn guys dumped a huge pile of leaves rite in our back yard. After staring at the pile all day we just couldn't take it anymore! It was calling our names! 
Happy loved playing in the leaves too. She would jump in the air trying to catch them. 
Daddy got home just in time to get in on the fun.
We all had a blast! 
Our fall will be over soon and it will be time to dig out the winter gear and sleds! 
With the night air cooling off the Northern lights are getting stronger and stronger. The other night they were super strong with flashes of reds and pinks mixed in with the usually blue and green. It was said that they were seen as far south as Wyoming with even reports of people in Missouri seeing them. 
I am in constant awe of God's creation! I love the changing of the seasons, His amazing light show, and all of creation.
