Fabulous Fall!!

The first weekend in October, the girls had Friday off of school...for some reason!  I still don't know  why.  But it was a beautiful Fall day so I thought we would take advantage and go to the City Zoo, which happens to be right behind our house.  Well turns out, you have to have cash to get into the city zoo, and of course, I didn't have any on me nor at home.  So we decided to table the Zoo idea and just play at the many parks also behind our house. 

Look at this cute little swinging monkey! 

 Ava pushing Sofie!  It was just so stinkin cute! 

 Trying to see saw.  Not only is the weight very unevenly distributed, but this see saw is a little bit special anyways. 

 Ducks at the fishing pond are always a hit.  I swear, Will is going to fall in one of these days! 

 This is about as awkward a photo as any!!!  Haha! 

 Speaking of awkward....love these kids!!!  Hahaha!

 Thought I would try to capture all four together on this beautiful day, in this beautiful spot in our backyard....but alas, all my kids cannot look good in a photo together!  So these are pretty entertaining!  Look at that sweet Lily and Sofie snuggle??  Is that not adorable?  The other two however....:)

 A little better....

 And then it's just downhill from there....but that sure is a pretty spot...in my own backyard!  I'm going to get professional pictures done here one day! 

 And Will is taking his shoes off...

 

 They're cute kids, I'll keep them even if they can't take a decent photo! 

 This little girls finally decided to overcome her fears and climb the big tree in the back yard!!  Yahoo!!  Well done, Ava!

 I seriously was in awe of how beautiful this place is!!  All Autumn long I couldn't stop being amazed every time I walked out the door.  This is the view from my garage.  It probably just looks like a picture of an ordinary neighbourhood on an ordinary day to most everyone else, but for me, it was seriously a little slice of heaven!
