Fall leaves and rainy days

Sarah loves to play in the rain. When our front ditch fills up she likes to splash around in it, it had been raining for several days. She had to stay on the left side of the driveway to splash around, I actually think she could have gone swimming on the right side...way too much rain. But the good news is our basement is dry!!

She also loves to play in the leaves each Fall. It was hard to find a day that wasn't raining and if it wasn't raining the leaves were way too wet to play in. We lucked out and had a day that didn't rain and the leaves were only slightly wet, she had a great time. We have this beautiful tree in our backyard. I'm embarrased to say this is the first year I've noticed it. I love the shape of the tree and the gorgeous color of the leaves. Sarah picked a whole bucket of leaves from this tree and we later laminated them in a "Fall leaf collection" it's hanging on our wall. I like hanging Sarah's creations on the kitchen wall it's fun for all of us to enjoy.
