The joys of fall

I have always loved fall. For me it always meant starting school, getting new clothes and of course the cooling down from summer. I especially love the leaves as they change color. Of course along with the positive comes a little negative. We have had to scrape our window every morning, which isn't so great.

This week we took our 2nd graders on a field trip to Hee Haw farms. It was really fun for them and me. There was a corn maze, pumpkin patch, hay ride, etc. We had the perfect weather, and enough adult chaperones to make it enjoyable for the teachers. It was the perfect outing for a beautiful fall day.

Brian is still working away at school. It's been a tough semester, but he is doing well.

This weekend we decided we needed to do some work out in our yard. We have a flower bed/garden going around the front of our house. It is terribly overgrown with massive weeds. Apparently the previous tenants didn't feel the need to pull up weeds, or do anything to the flower bed. We were only able to spend about 30 minutes working on it, but hopefully after next weekend we will have it cleared out. We are enjoying having our own yard. :)
