a walk in the leaves


after we dropped zoe off at school
i asked pia what she wanted to do
she told me she wanted to walk in the leaves
so that is exactly what we did






we also inspected the leaves very carefully

 and had great fun just being out in the warm autumn sun



i must admit that christmas is my  very most favorite time
of year

but the crisp fall air
and the crunching of leaves under my feet
and the gorgeous fall palette of reds, yellows and oranges
make me wish that fall will stick around a little while longer

I got my first good leave crunch under foot yesterday. There's something so relaxing and indulgent about that. I love this is what your little one wanted to do.

Pia has grown so much, I saw the first photo and thought it was Zoe only to look closely and realise it was Pia. That is such a cute idea to walk in the leaves, such fun memories.

what pretty pictures. She looks so grown up in those first pictures with her hands to her side/in her pockets.
