Autumn Leaves Are Falling

"Autumn leaves are falling, Autumn leaves are falling, Autumn leaves are falling down upon us now." This is the little song Maddie was singing while jumping in the leaves at Grandma and Grandpa MacKender's house. The leaves have been falling and Maddie has been asking to jump in them since the first leaves started to fall. So...you can only imagine how excited she was when Grandma and I said "O.K." to her request. The weather finally took a break from raining and we went outside to play in the leaves. Maddie had fun raking, jumping, and singing in the leaves. I love the Autumn colors!
Peyton, on the other hand, was not so sure why we were placing her on the wet ground in a bunch of leaves, and wanting to take her picture. She hung in there for awhile.

We had a good time. Maddie's final poem while playing in the leaves went something like this:

It's raining big,

It's raining small,

It's raining Autumn leaves in fall.

It's raining gold, and red, and brown

It's raining leaves all around.

I thought this was a cute little poem that she learned at school, and she said and signed it at just the right moment. The perfect Fall day!
