The first (and possibly only) snow of the year has begun in Richmond this evening. Conveniently aligning itself with the kids getting out of school for Winter Break. No snow days from school for them. Oh well.

Trick or treating is now complete and the kids brought home a MAJOR haul this year. Not too many kids out, but they scored well because of it. Here's a couple of pics of them in their costumes:

Fall in the Blue Ridge MountainsAfter a windy, oddly hot, day yesterday, we took advantage of the cooler weather and bright blue skies to made a long overdue trip to the Blue Ridge Mountains.

Taxi!It was a beautiful day to be outdoors today, so we headed out to a local farm to have a hayride and visit the pumpkin patch. They had a farm market and a haybale maze as well, so it turned out to be even better than expected. Best of all, it was free. (Except for the pumpkins we bought....three good sized pumpkins and 8 ears of corn for $12. Not bad!)
Here's a link to some photos.
Happy Fall!

Party hat? Check.Today marked the end of a weekend long celebration of Emma's third birthday.
On Friday, she made a crown, had cupcakes, and led the birthday parade at preschool. On Saturday, she had the whole family over for a party. And, today (her actual birthday), she took us all to Chuck E. Cheese.
