Leaves are falling all around....

Oh the joys of being a child, and the fun a massive pile of leaves bring. Monday night we decided that we needed to get our yard cleaned up before the storm hit. So for family night we raked our little hearts out. In the end, the work was well worth it. The kids had a blast playing in the pile we made. Being the brave little souls they are, they climbed the tree and did belly flops into the pile. It was that big!! That made me a little nervous but I wasn't about to still their thunder. Here are a few pics I captured during all the fun.

With a pile this big, who could resist a leaf fight!! What a fun time we had together! A memory we will always have....the HUGE pile of leaves that provided so much entertainment, and brought our family together in work and play.

Another deer hunt...come and gone!

My favorite time of the year(NOT)...when my husband and boys pack up and head to the mountain in search for the next unsuspecting deer. Every year I secretly pray that they don't bring anything home, but that they have a good, safe, trip. This year was no exception. They did have a good time...and even came home empty handed! WOOHOO!

Can't you just see the excitement on his face? He is in his element!!

Jake, just being Jake!

Austi Posti...I have no words for this!

Mike and Kevin Kuhle

J and Austin actually fell asleep for a few. Leave it to J to find a place to lay down and take a load off!

Poor Jake can't escape the studies They came home a day early because of the snow. This shows just a skiff of it, but not wanting to take the chance and have to dig out in the morning they just decided to be safe and pack up early. It was a nice surprise for me. I'm glad it's done with for one more year!
