Sometimes a man just has to chop down a tree. Devan told me on Friday that he wanted to go get more wood. Now, while we probably don't need more wood for this year...I guess it's never a bad thing to end up with too much. Plus, cutting wood is something Devan greatly enjoys. He definitely caught the wood cutting bug from his dad. We decided to drive up to a new area before Daniel's Summit. We found a great place just 10 minutes up this dirt road. Problem was...it was so good that everyone else had also gone there. We were pretty hard pressed to find a dead pine tree anywhere. Then, we found this gnarly fat daddy tree.
He was very proud of the wedge he cut in it. Unfortunately I am somewhat handicap when it comes to running a camcorder and totally missed the actual falling of the tree. I felt really bad. This was after all the biggest tree Devan had ever cut down.
After we got home we watched the football game. I snapped this quick shot while Devan and Sophie were playing on the laptop. Man, I have never seen a child so enthralled with technology. She is ADORABLE!
Side note...I am thoroughly obsessed with baking cupcakes lately. Today I tried the Orange & White Chocolate recipe. Devan said they were just as good the Andes Mint ones. So so so good. I highly recommend it.
Oh...I almost forgot. I snapped a few pics (yes, they were taken while we were driving) of the trees changing colors.

Oh... missing fall - loved the fall leaves and wood cutting pix. Carrie Lyn told me SEVERAL times how delicious the pumpkin cupcakes were. Dying for one. Just finding a can of pumpkin here is... well, kind of impossible. Keep on baking - can't wait to try some. And keep on posting. Love October.
