Raking Leaves

This is an annual tradition for our family.  When we got back from Utah for Thanksgiving our front yard was covered with leaves and our backyard the same.  Sometimes it is a challenge fitting it in, but the kids love to pile the leaves us and play in them.  There is something about playing in the leaves that brings the kid out in you.  We usually bring the leaves from the front yard to the back yard and add it to the pile there.  Grant then takes some of the leaves and uses it for his garden.  The kids love to pile the leaves in front of the slide and slide down into it.  We were blessed this year with Spring like weather which made it a fun afternoon.
