Fall is here!



Every year fall comes and I get so excited about the crisp air and changing leaves. This year was no different just in a new city. We decided we needed to have a autumn adventure so... I used my handy dandy computer skills and found a fall festival along with mountain hiking.

Yesterday we drove out to Leavenworth, which is a small "Bavarian" style town in the Cascade Mountains. We had a great time watching a parade, perusing the shops, and of course, enjoying a bratwurst! After a leisurely morning, we stopped in at the ranger station near by town and went hiking in the Wenatchee National Forest. It was a great day.

Today we are decorating for Halloween and having delicious chili! Next week we are getting a half a cow from the butcher!! We are sharing it with Eric's brother Will and his family! We are excited to have a freezer full of meat!

Not much else Rachel is crazy about hats and shoes. You can see more pictures in our online picture albums: http://picasaweb.google.com/ericmichellerachel
