In October, we felt fall on our faces

Remember when we got back from Sumy, and I vowed to help my boys behave better inside by giving them plenty of time outside? Even when it's cold? Well, fall arrived, and we kept up our daily pre-dinner strolls. So pretty! So sanity-saving!





I'm still dedicated to keeping this up once the snow starts falling. Actually, in some ways I'm looking forward to the snow, since it will be easier to spot, and thereby avoid, dog poop. Now that the sky grows dark by 4:30, we've accidentally brought home the neighborhood dogs' offerings on our shoes twice.
