Leaf Collecting, 2014

  Before I get into our super fun afternoon of collecting leaves, I had to include the following pictures.  Our new flower bed is doing well and the twins love watering it...as you will see below!


Running under the hose..very fun!


Cameron weighing his options....the hose or the watering can?

The watering can!

Allie is such a goofball!

And now....onto our leaf collecting!

  I had the idea to have the twins do some leaf collecting and put together a little book of leaves.  My dad is coming down again in a few weeks and I thought it would be fun for him to identify the leaves in the book.  Since he was a logger for 40 years, he's pretty much a leaf connoisseur!!

Allie with her thirty-one bag ready to collect!



This was so amazing!  Cameron set his little bag down on the fire pit and literally 5 seconds later, a leaf fell DIRECTLY into the bag.  What are the odds?  I think it was Grandma Stanton adding to our collection!


Time to enter the woods!


I found a good one!

How beautiful is this little face???

Found some good ones in the front yard, too!

Cam lost interest in the leaf collecting and decided to instead carry his dinosaur around by the tail.

Allie says, "He is so weird...."

Dinosaur still in tow...but he found a good leaf, too!
 Time for some twinja love...plus a dinosaur!



We then headed inside to put our books together!

Unloading our leaves...

Little bit of glue...


All done!

Bad picture of Cameron but good picture of his book!
 Happy Fall everyone!
