Fall Frolic

We couldn't pass up the leaf piles today. I'm sure we were supposed to be doing something productive, but we pulled over for a spontaneous leaf stop. The kids rolled down a hill into a pile of leaves, ran across big rows of leaf piles, and buried themselves in leaves. Yippee! Fall is going by too quickly this year and we haven't had enough good leaf days. This will have to do for awhile!

Fall Party

Our friends at church host a BIG fall party on their farm every year. We look forward to it and it is fun to dress up in our cowboy garb.

There is a big potluck, lots of games for kids and grownups, face painting, and a hayride to top it off. This year there was a big log to saw for a contest and cups of fresh apple cider. Oh, we sing songs around the campfire too.

Clint was the leader of the games and did a great job as expected. Ben and Sarah had an afternoon to remember. Our hosts reminded us how we need to treasure the times we have together with our families and friends, and trust God when the world seems so uncertain (like the last few weeks).

So we went home and put away our cowboy hats and bandanas, and we'll look forward to another great party on the farm next year!
