Muscling...

This is my first attempt at a video post, but this was a funny situation that was happening at dinner tonight and I couldn't help but share it with you all...

So Many Leaves

We have so many leaves to rake these days.  I can't believe it!  The nice thing is that the weather has cooperated.  It has been in the 70s or close to for the past three days, making it that much easier to go out and rake and the boys to play.  We've got two beautiful red maples in our yard, but they are "late" in falling, so we are always cutting it close to leaf pick-up getting these taken care of.  And I kid you not, most of the leaves fall in one day!  

This is a picture of Noah "playing Monkey."  That's how he described it to me so I would put him up in the tree.

This was the first year that the boys wanted to jump in the piles of leaves, so I captured a few of them doing so...

This is just a glimpse of part of our yard...can you still see how many are in the tree!  It's November 5th for goodness sake!!
