Totoro Hunting

Sup guys? How's your autumn? Lots of sweaters, snuggles, and hot chocolate? Or has it been more like never ending leaves, freezing temperatures, and the beginning of cold season? Eh, I'm here and there on fall. On the one hand, summer is over, and I hate everything about that. On the other, Christmas is coming! The goose is getting fat! Time to put a penny in the old man's hat!

Here are some pictures of my kids, because that's what parents are best at.

We did some finger painting in the kitchen, which quickly evolved into war paints. 

The kids were Where's Waldo and Where's Wanda for Halloween. 

Where IS Wanda?

Pa came to hang out with us at the Halloween dinner and trunk or treat. 

Atticus loves these glasses! 

We've gone for some walks under the maple trees. They all love to throw leaves at each other and the cat. Yeah, Wire usually follows us on our walks. 

Today we went out to walk the Spruce Rail Trail by Lake Crescent. The idea was to go "hunting for Totoro". All three of them loved it, and I loved seeing the mossy trees. I wish my good camera were working, because my cell phone doesn't do justice to these beauties! 

I think if I were Totoro, I would live in a mossy tree like this. It looks so soft and comfy.
