We really enjoy our large yard. But having a large yard also means we have a lot of yard to clean up when the leaves fall. And we have some big leaves.
...which means big leaf piles!
The boys helped start the clean up.
Or at least scooped enough together to jump into!
...sometimes with a running start.
They had fun for a while before the rain started and work stopped for the day.
It seems like one thing or another kept us from getting the job finished, like weather, random prior commitments or butchering a deer. Then on Saturday we came home from a work day helping friends that lost their home in the tornado and noticed that a neighbor must have mowed up most of our leaves! If it was you, Joe, THANKS! I tried to take cookies over and call, but have yet to get ahold of them. On Sunday, the boys both napped (rare occasion) while Derek and I went out to finish the rest.
And Cooper got in on helping when Derek finished over his lunch break the next day...because we ran out of lawn bags the day before.
The joys of being home owners again.
