Leaves

A few nights ago, we were waiting for Chris to get home from work. So, while dinner was cooking, the kids and I went outside to run around a bit. It had been rainy and we had not gotten to raking yet. Really, it's more laziness than anything. A good stiff wind and they'll all blow over into our neighbor's yard and we'll be rid of the leaves. But, before that happens, the kids wanted to get out there to play a bit.

Nothing like throwing bunches of wet leaves up into the air to simulate a tree dropping all it's leaves in one fell swoop

And, the ol' throw leaves at your sister while she's throwing them at you

There was even time for a 'twisty wisty' on the swing. This involves one of the girls sitting on the swing yelling "more! More! More!" while the boys twist up the swing. Note the exceptionally wet jeans.
