New Fall Tradition

For a few years now I have wanted to try waxing leaves.  This year we finally did it.  We actually did this a little late in the season because our leaves weren't as vibrant as they had been in previous weeks but I knew if I didn't just go for it the boys would be 25 before I got to it.

They absolutely LOVED collecting and dipping the leaves.

And then I strung them up and made garland.

Great activity that I think we will repeat yearly.

I just had to add this one because I think it's cute.  They are enjoying some hot chocolate while they practice sight words a.k.a. outlaw words.

Now we are gearing up for Halloween 2012!  They are psyched!!!!
