Fall is here. The days are getting shorter, the
weather is getting crisper, the leaves are falling and pumpkins
are here. We’ve had a few beautiful fall days with
jack-o-lantern carving, raking leaves, and baking pumpkin
bread. I know I’ll be raking as many leaves this year as I did
last year, but I’m hoping to stay on top of the task so it
doesn’t become quite as arduous as it was last year. We’ll see.
We carved pumpkins on Saturday with Alan’s parents. (yeah,
probably won’t last until Halloween, but oh well) Lex drew all
over the pumpkins (and himself and the table) with permanent
marker and took great thrill in the anticipation of putting his
hand into the pumpkin. He wouldn’t actually touch anything
inside, just sort of reached his hand in. Silly boy. Here are
some pictures and a movie.
