Leaves are falling all around...

The kids love all the leaves on the ground. A couple of times they have tried to rake the leaves into a pile but with the wind blowing (almost constantly) they have yet to find success with this task. Jacob decided to help more leaves to fall using a different tactic...a sword. To him, a sword is like duct tape...it can fix anything. From getting something in a hard to reach spot to protecting himself from his brother.

Emma's Christmas Moosical

Every year, the third grade at Mesa Elementary puts on a Christmas musical. This year they did a play about Marty the Moose, a moose who really wants to be able to fly. It was really cute! Emma was Elf #3 and she had performed her 4 lines perfectly. :) It was so fun to watch her!

After the play with her brothers and sister...some were just ready to get home.

So proud of our 'leading lady.'
