Playing in the leaves

Move over mom is jumping in too.
Zack by himself

Of course Natalie had to be by herself too.

Living in New Hampshire it is quite the job to try and remove the leaves off of the lawn before it snows. You get a load taken care of and then the wind blows or more leaves drop and it looks like you haven't even done anything. Thank goodness it is so beautiful out here during the Fall. It seems to make the chore not so bad. We all went outside on Friday and tried to pick up the last bit of leaves and it was about 4:00 and very cold (32 degrees). We had to hurry really fast because it gets pitch dark out here by 5:00 and so we didn't even get around to finishing the front yard because we had to take time out from the work and play a little. Natalie afterward said that she had a really fun time working together as a family and wanted to do it again. Oh the memories we make. :) We love New England in the Fall.

Kelly you are such a good blogger! I love reading all of the things that you do. Piles of leaves are fun but it does make me think about the hard work of getting it into the pile. The pictures are fun too!
