Going on a Weef (leaf) Hunt!

 Last night (after I got done with my crazy cooking adventure) Grant and I were discussing some ideas for today.  We both really wanted to get the kiddos outside to experience Fall in Michigan but the weather hasn't been exactly co-operative.  We were supposed to tap out at a balmy 49 degrees today with lots of cloud cover.

Then we remembered that there was a nature conservatory not too far from the house on Farmington Road that we had been meaning to check out.  So we decided we needed to go on a leaf hunt!  We'd help the kiddos find tons of fun colored leaves and then later they could make a really cool mural out of their finds.

It was great!  Mikayla kept singing "We're going on a weef hunt!" much to mine and Grant's amusement.  Every person we met on the trail learned we were 'weef' hunting.  Then we took them to get some posterboard and as I type this they are busy at the table making two very cool murals.  I'll post pictures of them later, but for now, here's our 'weef' adventure
