Leaves falling down

We thought we had a good amount of autumn leaves in our yard, (okay Jonathan wasn't entirely happy with the situation, as he had to sweep them up) - but then we visited Jonathan's parents house and found out what a yard embracing autumn really looks like. The kids were ecstatic.

 

 

And with such clear blue skies (except for the last half of last week, when the older kids were at camp and the rain teemed down, the whole time) it's been hard to drive past our local park, especially when Arch yells out "Swings Mum! Swings!"
 Arch loves the swings.

And I'm finding it hard to say no to this little face.

I thought it was hilarious that the council had 'patched' the soft fake lawn- like surface with this bushy astro turf.
The perfect spot to stand..
