FALL STUFF

So, I've gotten behind and therefore will cram some stuff into this post...
CRANBERRIES!!!!!!!!!!!
The annual Cranberry Harvest Festival was last weekend. We drove there- about 2 hours southwest of where we live. We were too late for the tours, however, we did our own tour.



We drove around to find some cranberry bogs and we did...


...we also caught some men harvesting-from bogs to bags they say.


A week ago, the girls were learning about colors and so we tie dyed some shirts:) When I say we, I mean the girls and their Gram--I was at work. The shirts turned out great and they had a blast:)


Dalaina insisted on circles for her shirt!


Faith had to do a 2-step color system for hers. The blue one was one of David's white shirts and I think it runed out great!


Late September, we went to a pumpkin patch (an earlier post) and the girls picked pumpkins. They insisted on bringing them home and painting them. Of course, I said sure!!



Can you see the faces?



The girls have also been learning about the seasons. They took a walk with my mom and collected some acrons, leaves, twigs, etc. We put it all together and created some autumn wreathes:)




The one on the left was made by Dalaina and the other one is Faith's. This one below, that was the one I made. We had a lot of fun and we enjoy looking at them everyday:)


Now, I am caught up!
