Falling Leaves and Painting and Christmas Trees

So since a lot has happened since the last time I blogged I will break this into three parts.

Part One: Falling Leaves
Since the leaves have been falling of course we needed to clean them up. And with Kayla little jobs that wouldn't take that long take much longer. Well she is starting to really get into wanting to help me with cleaning and just daily chores. So my Mom decided to let her help rake the leaves outside.














She was very excited and really enjoyed trying to rake the leaves but her favorite was riding in the wheel barrel with all the leaves.














Then my Dad was working on fixing a tire so she had to go help him. Let me tell you she is Grandpa's little shadow. She would do anything for Grandpa. That was a fun day for us.














Part Two: Painting

So Kayla absolutely loves to paint. She knows where her paints are and will ask me all the time to get them out for her. Well it's fun watching her paint and here are some pictures of her painting.







































Part Three: Christmas Tree Hunting

So every year my Dad's side of the family goes Christmas Tree hunting up by Strawberry the day after Thanksgiving. It's always lots of fun, and we are always cold and sometimes there is no snow but it's fun. Well this year there was snow, YEAH, and Kayla got her first taste of snow. Well she was a little frustrated with her outfit. If you have ever watched a Christmas story you remember the little boy that was so bundled up that he couldn't even put his arms down. Well Kayla kind of reminded me of that. We put her in a sled and she couldn't bend at the waist so she just laid down in the sled.



















Then she wanted to go over to the hill where the kids where sliding down it and it was very funny to watch her walk over there.






















Well then she saw Grandpa riding the four wheelers so of course she wanted to try them out and she loved them. She will do well in this family. So when we get our tree all decorated I will post a picture of the lovely tree we cut down after having to hike up the mountain to find it. It was a fun day and Kayla did pretty good for how cold it was.
