#iheartfall

Springville in October is my absolute favorite. They decided not to plant corn this year. All summer long, I missed the waving silky stalks next door; but that was before October revealed the hundreds of ripened pumpkins sprinkled over a brown field with the fall mountains sprayed in reds, yellows, golds, oranges, green, and browns as a backdrop. Looking out my window is breathtaking. I've never been able to take a picture to do it justice.

My garden is puttering out slowly. But I harvested a few onions, and a bowl full of beautiful fresh tomatoes. I'll miss them terribly after the freeze.

We've had a few rainy days, which Ollie and Del took to mean that it was time to bust out the snow gear. I think not. Although we could use a heavy snow this year, I'm not anticipating it with much excitement. I'll take the rain though...

For the most part, I think the kids are enjoying their days. Rue is growing like a weed, and getting so big. She's a little sassy-pants too. She likes to stand up when she rides in the wagon, she climbs the stairs all by herself. She has more personality in her little pinkie than I have in my whole body.

Soccer is over and basketball has begun. Ivan is practicing his dribbling skills in his spare time these days.

Nightly torture for everyone involved.

Ivan made an ice cream stand out of a box, the kids have been having a lot of fun with it.

Me and my girls.

Adelia's "Lovelys" she is inventing. They are robots that will do all her chores and run lemonade stands to earn money for Adelia to spend on all the things she wants. Haha! 

I started working on painting Adelia's dresser again. I had to go over the teal with a different kind of paint because the kind I was using before started peeling. Now I'm in the middle of painting a stencil on the front of the drawers in yellow and green. It's going to be awesome when it's finished.

And here are a couple of fun Type Three fall outfits I put together. My orange pants are freakin' awesome, ya know? :)
