Leaves

In the fall, we took a Saturday afternoon to rake up some leaves.  The kids really wanted to jump into a big pile, and we only have one small peach tree in our yard, so we borrowed some of our neighbor's leaves.  :)  They had a blast and also had a lesson in working until the job is done.  That's a hard lesson to learn. 

Apparently our neighbor had some small rakes that they let us borrow.  Something about small equipment helps the kids stay interested.  ha ha

You can't really see it very well, but look at sadie bending down to pick up the leaves.  She is so flexible!  And also see my shadow...I'm sitting in a lawn chair holding a sleeping baby.  :)

Almost ready to jump!!!

They have fun jumping and throwing the leaves around for about 10 minutes.  

Then the girls helped Rob put all the leaves into our green bin.  Then they got a ride.  :)
