Pumpkins and Snow

We've been enjoying a rather cold October! Yesterday, Chris called me on his way to work to excitedly announce that he was driving through snow flurries. I practically ran to the window and, sure enough, a few minutes later we had snow at home also.



Allison has been sick for the last five days, so she was thrilled to be a part of something exciting (she got rather bored in her bedroom). Abby wanted me to turn the rocking chair around so we could "nuggle" in it together and watch the snow come down. It did come down - for two hours! What a fun (and rather bizarre) morning.



We've been enjoying all of our typical Autumn activities: pumpkin carving, pumpkin bread, pumpkin crafts - just about anything having to do with pumpkins!


Here's Allison reading to Abby, who looooves to have another person to read her stories. :)


Abby at Library Story Time - she really is happy, just contemplating how to untangle her ribbons.


The woman who does Story Time is just great with the kids. Here she is holding up a story book.

That's us in a nutshell! Enjoy the pics.
