seasons change - overnight!

We spent a lot of time Fri and Sat working on the yard(s)
both front and back
and raked up SO many leaves! It was beautiful fall weather,
crisp cool mornings and sunny afternoons with all the leaves
falling and color just EVERYWHERE around us! Micheal and Lea
helped me a ton in the backyard on Sat... we raked up piles
and piles of leaves... but never had time to get them bagged up.
Now, it's too late!













(this was our one HUGE pile out back...at least it is out of the way and not on the grass!!)




Then this morning we started to get this:


this is one tree out front (the neighbors actually)



and then our poor neighbor out back had to get up and clear out his satelite dish LOL yet another reason we love cable (hee hee).



Chris's Mercedes hates the wet weather - wonder what it thinks of this??



Micheal had to truck through the snow after school!!



Our BIG pine out back is looking sort of Christmas-ish isn't it??

Bring it! I am ready for the SNOW and ready for the HOLIDAYS and ready
to be cold and brrr chilly cuz' if you come into MY house tonight -



YOU GET TO HAVE THIS!!!!



mmmm mmmmm mmmmm yummy hot homemade veggie chicken noodle soup! DELISH!
