Going to my parents' home in the autumn means delicious apples off my dad's trees, and raking leaves into piles for jumping. My dad did not rake for a couple weeks before we went to make sure there would be a lot of leaves for the kids to rake and jump in. They loved it and we got a beautiful sunny but chilly day to play in the leaves and munch as many apples as we could!
Heidi discovered a bag full of fabric scraps in my mom's sewing stuff and mom lets her play with them when we go over there. Heidi's favorite thing to do is dumpy them all out. She also found a basket and decided that was more fun for the scraps then the bag. She was so funny!
The boys love to play outside at my parents' home, even when it's raining! And my parents are remodeling the guest bathroom to fix some leaking walls and other issues, and replaced the toilet.....it's sitting in their backyard right now and is very tempting to curious little boys! (David said he was making "yucky soup" for Liam, LOL)
We took advantage of a dry Sunday afternoon to go back to the trails in Snohomish. It was still muddy from the near-constant rain we've been having, but other than wrecking shoes, we had a lot of fun going down the right hand fork of the pathways. This is definitely a fun place to explore!
On the Sunday after Thanksgiving, the Butcher family gathered at Bill and Carol's for some family time decorating their tree. Liam helped put lights on, Pierce got the honor of putting up the angel this year, and everybody had a good time!
And, here's a few pictures that didn't fit anywhere else. David has been into building "robots" a lot lately, the kids enjoyed a snuggle together on the couch, and Heidi took Stella for a ride in her baby-sling.
Hope you all had a wonderful November!
