Gifts From The Giant Tree

Finally, the sunshine came out and we had the perfect day to visit our giant tree!  It was a beautiful day! 

We all worked hard on our color sorting activity first.  Then we were off!

We could feel the warmth of the sun. 

 I could take hundreds of leaf photos.  What wonderful gifts from the giant tree!

 The photo above was one of my favorite shots Friday.  See the way the sun is streaming down through the tree in the background?  Perfect!  I love that she is smiling at her leaf collection.

 He was sharing each treasure with me!

The ground was really muddy, so we didn't do any burying of ourselves in the leaves.  It was fun enough to just pick them up and run around on them.  They were all chattering away about the leaves.

 "One, two, three..THROW!"

 "May I see your leaf bouquets?"

 ♥Crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch, crunch!♥

It was just a really great time!

My favorite photo from the outing is this one, above.  He was tossing the leaves up in the air and had joy on his face.  It screams fall, and of the joy of being a child with only one thing on his mind- leaves falling down! 

How beautifully innocent.

♥♥♥Happy Monday!♥♥♥
