Fall Fun

Okay Nicole and Joni here is our updated blog. :)Sorry this post has taken so long. I have no excuses other than every time I get on the computer my kids start fighting. I am sure some of you can relate. If you are wondering why there are no Halloween pictures it is because I was a mean mom this year and one of my children was grounded from going trick or treating so I just left it out so she would not feel bad. I know you can't believe that cute thing is ever naughty but trust me it is the truth! So here is what we have been up to this fall.


The leaves were just beautiful this year and one of trees lost them early so we had a leaf raking afternoon. Peyton loves being buried in the leaves!

Can you believe it is October and he is wearing a sleeveless shirt! The joys of being a kid and jumping in the leaf pile.

We live right by the Hope College nature trails and the dunes so during the fall, when the mosquitoes are gone, we love to go out there for hikes. This day the sun so was beautiful and it was so peaceful. We had a great day!

In order to get out of the trails you need to cross a creek and the only way to cross is to step on some rocks. Well this time Peyton did not quite make it over and fell in. She was all wet and Peyton does not like to be wet so we had strip her down and that is how she walked home with big brother who was a little more prepared :)
