Our fun friends invited us up to enjoy the cool air in Flag. Our goal was to see leaves changing colors and teach our kids about autumn, since we don't really have one here. We were a little early for the leaves, most were green, but we caught sight of a few colored ones. We enjoyed the cool air and the company of our friends.
Andy and Andrea took us on a fun hike.
Lily climbed right up this big old rock. Andy was a great spotter.

Lily was a great little hiker and found lots of leaves, sticks, and pine cones to bring home.
Carter had some technical difficulties...relieving himself in the great outdoors proved a little challenging. :) But he sure is cute anyway!
Hazel enjoyed the ride on Aaron's back.
They aaaalmost reached around it!
Look at those yummy pizzas! Andy and Andrea had some great pizza ideas to share. If you know me well, you know that I love to make homemade pizza. I'm excited to try their tips at our house:
1. Pre-cook the pepperoni in a pan for a few minutes then dry it on a paper towel. It gets rid of a lot of the grease.
2. Slooooooowly caramelize onions in butter. We're talking hours in a frying pan over low heat.
3. Basil pesto instead of red sauce.
Those pizzas were delicious and hit the spot after our jaunt in the fresh air. Thanks, Andy and Andrea!

Jill, what gorgeous photos. I love the close up of Hazel and the one of Lily holding the leaf. Seriously, they could be in a magazine. How fun to go up to flag and enjoy cooler weather. It looks like you all had a lovely time.
Another ANDY and ANDREA. How fun! Sounds like you guys had lots of fun! We LOVE homemade pizza. We'll have to try the ideas.
