Fall arrives in Austin

Mom's friend Cati, who lives in Chicago, stepped in to help. She sent me leaves! Now it officially feels like fall to me.

I have been a bit puzzled by fall. I know fall comes when the leaves turn red, orange, and yellow yet the leaves in Austin are still green. It is particularly confusing when Mom tells me I can't wear a sundress because it is fall. Doesn't look like fall to me!

And last but not least, Byers gets a turn. His tractor noises were by far the best!
