Fall fun

The leaves on our trees took forever to fall this year!  It wasn't until the end of November that I started raking them!!  It took me 5 hours to rake and bag all these stinkin leaves this day.  And we had to do it three more times after that!  I think these pictures were taken on the 5th and last pile of the day.  I was definitely sick of it.  But I shouldn't complain because I really enjoy the shade from these trees in the summer.  At least the kids got to have a little fun while we did it.  :)

Longest run to the leaves ever!!  My kids always do that....I don't know why, but without fail, they will have a huge ol' run before jumping.
