Fall Fun!

Autumn

When the trees their summer splendor

Change to raiment red and gold,

When the summer moon turns mellow,

And the nights are getting cold;

When the squirrels hide their acorns,

And the woodchucks disappear;

Then we know that it is autumn,

Loveliest season of the year.

-Charlotte L. Riser

Yesterday, my best friend and I planned an afternoon of fall crafts, activities, and cookies for our 7 kids collectively! We took some pictures outside first.

Then, we gathered everyone into the kitchen for crafts.

How true...

Each one waited as patiently as they could for their turn to help bake cookies.

Garrett enjoyed watching. :)

Time to eat some cookies!

The mommy's made ourselves some halloween photo magnets with the photos from outside.

We were credited for our hard work.... :)

Whew! What a fun fall day!
