Rake Day 2012

A week after moving in, we began the endeavor to rake our millions of leaves.  While it was kind of fun, we will probably be implementing more high-tech leaf control methods next year (leaf blower? mulching?  it's all new to me).  We sent 20 bags of "yard waste" off to the compost today and turned back around to see leaves already covering our yard again!!!  It literally doesn't look like we've raked yet.  Kind of humorous.  Kind of not.  Here are a few memorable shots from our gorgeous rake day:




This is a sandbox that was here when we moved in.  I think if we put a little work into fixing it up, the kids would love it.  Emerson has already found several army men and other "treasures" hidden in the sand.



Daddy climbed the tree

So Emerson had to follow.
I think we had over 14 piles of leaves in our front and back yards.  Whew.  We had our workout for the week!
