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.)

RussSchool has been a little scarce since Alex joined the clan. I decided to do an impromptu lesson on the real reason for Fall. After painting leaves on our trees we decided to go for a walk and get some leaves for their “collections”.

Zack was excited about the whole thing…

And the kids learned that there is lots of fun to be had in a big pile of leaves… Even if it is just a little patch of leaves next to the road…Can’t beat a day in the Fall sunshine! Even 6 week old Alex had a great time!!
