Fall Weekends

It's really starting to look like fall in our yard. The giant cypress tree in the front yard is bright and its fronds are falling by the minute.
I hate raking that thing every fall! They get everywhere and are pretty much ankle deep on Lilli in the front yard right now.We've been collecting all kinds of nuts and leaving them for the squirrels. She's pretty focused on the squirrels right now. Since it's dark so early, the last few Friday nights we've had indoor picnic and movie night. She loves it! Last night we watched Monsters, Inc for a "Halloween" type feel.
The return of footed PJs are one of my favorite things about this colder time of year.
Since we'll have a frost soon I also don't mind little creatures disturbing the remaining tomatoes in my garden.
Although I'd probably prefer if they didn't drive up and park for a while to pick things just so they could stomp on them. She also likes to put them in her pockets, and today a little green one made it all the way through the wash and the dryer before it was discovered.
We spend more time indoors, and some new play areas have been discovered. I can't say we're pleased.
It would be nice if we could buy her her own crate and leave her every day, it would sure save us a lot of money!
Tonight we went to the mall. I wish every store was like Gymboree - a bench and movies for the kiddos! She loves it there.....
and so do I! They really do have the best clothes. Not the best prices, but for sure the best clothes!!!
And we even made new friends around the toddler magnet fountain. Of course we were all talking about how cute the little Asian girl's Halloween dress was. But that's kind of what you'd expect in Green Hills!
