It's beginning to look, feel and sound a lot like Christmas!

Well, we had our first "snow" yesterday. It was enough to cover the cars and the deck, but not much else. School wasn't even on a delay! I don't think it has gotten above freezing the last 2 days.
Christmas music has been playing in the stores since November 1st and it just started on the radio this past weekend. Next year it may be September when they start. Don't get me wrong, I love Christmas but it keeps getting earlier and there are only so many songs that they can play over and over during the season.
Sorry, no pictures of the snow, we were too busy getting ready for work in the morning and it was all gone by the time we got home.

Lots of Leaves

Another Saturday, another day raking leaves.  Zoe was able to get in on the fun today!

Fall

Today was a great fall day.  After some running around, we took advantage of the 70 degree weather and raked the yard.  The trees are beautiful, but they sure do make a lot of work for us during this time of year.  We ended up with 11 big black trash bags and we only raked the front yard!  

All of those leaves still to fall!

Last night was also a lot of fun.  Dustin's band went to their football game and decided to have a little fun... rather than their regular show, they played "thriller" and did the dance too.  If you would like to see a video of it, a band parent posted it on their blog.  Excuse the yelling... the moms always get excited!   www.hiddenvalleyband.blogspot.com
