Leaves

This beautiful fall weather has given us lots of opportunities to play in the leaves. And we have plenty of them. (Nine huge trees in the front yard alone will do that.) It's nice that every few days the kids manage to rake up at least some of the leaves.
Peter absolutely loves it and sometimes goes around asking people to please rake the leaves for him.
We must have pretty good leaves or something, because there are usually some neighbor kids involved, too. The more the merrier, I say.



Sometimes I get a little disgusted thinking about what could be in or on all those leaves that they bury themselves in, but I just have to let that thought go and let them enjoy their fun. That's why they have baths, right?

Amelia and her friend, Hallee, hijacked the camera to take a few pictures.

We have just loved this weather. I am dreading the changes that are headed our way especially since we still have 80% of our leaves still on the trees. They will look lovely covered in snow.
