Fall is my absolute favorite time of the year!! I love it in Ohio when the air is crisp and the many leaves are changing and even start to fall to the ground, its just so beautiful....I have always been more of a country girl, my dream would be to have 10 acres and some horses and barn animals (hopefully someday :) but for right now I am thankful to have over an acre, our kids love our yard, and we do too, up until its time for Josh and I to rake our leaves. The first picture is after our "first" round of raking the front yard, and there is still a ton on the trees that still have to fall. The second picture is of our backyard and it goes all the way back to the solid forest line in the back, and of course our property hast o have tress all the way around our house and then throughout the yard. Josh hates to rake leaves and if he had it his way, he would cut down every tree and have none lol, but I try and look at it as, its pretty, the kids love to play in them and at least its a good exercise :)
The kids had a BLAST jumping and playing in the leaves, although Justin did lose his new glasses in the MASSIVE leaf pile we had raked and we were all on our hands and knees digging away trying to find them because we couldnt afford to buy another pair, I said a little prayer and I am not kidding you 1 minute later, I found his glasses, the lord REALLY does answer prayers, both big and little ones!
Our kids are just like Mommy and Daddy, they LOVE to be outdoors, getting dirty and having fun, you can definitely tell they belong in our family, even the girls, we like to "try" and look cute doing it (although that doesn't always happen), but when it comes to camping, fishing, hunting, hiking, backpacking, digging for worms, bugs, snakes, shootin or guttin animals, we are the first to dig in! WE LOVE THE OUTDOORS, I am in awe everyday of this beautiful Earth that our Heavenly Father created for us, another blessing that I am so thankful to enjoy!
