On The Third Day of Christmas...

The Russes gave to me…

A New England Fall

One of my favorite things about living in New England is the incredible Fall colors. Abby would tell me regularly that it’s called Fall because all the leaves FALL off the trees.

These pictures were taken at the Gore Place. (It was FREEZING outside.)2009-10-30 fall 036 2009-10-30 fall 047 2009-10-30 fall 068

RussSchool has been a little scarce since Alex joined the clan. I decided to do an impromptu lesson on the real reason for Fall.2009-11-03 Leaves 005 2009-11-03 Leaves 0072009-11-03 Leaves 0092009-11-03 Leaves 116 After painting leaves on our trees we decided to go for a walk and get some leaves for their “collections”. 2009-11-03 Leaves 064

Zack was excited about the whole thing…2009-11-03 Leaves 081

And the kids learned that there is lots of fun to be had in a big pile of leaves… 2009-11-03 Leaves 0982009-11-03 Leaves 020 2009-11-03 Leaves 1022009-11-03 Leaves 110 Even if it is just a little patch of leaves next to the road…2009-11-03 Leaves 115Can’t beat a day in the Fall sunshine!
