Leaf Us Alone!

The snow has finally stopped thank goodness! I couldn't take one more day but alas while it is not currently snowing, it did leave behind a good 12 inches of new snow. And on Thanksgiving! I couldn't believe it.

Luckily before it started, we were able to get one entire raking of the leaves done. The whole family got together (all whopping four of us) and raked, bagged and dumped a ton of leaves. The sad part is that we have maybe two trees in our entire yard. But the trees for our surrounding are attracted to our force field of a lawn.

But our family project was super fun. Cam Cam insisted on wearing boots that were at least three sizes to big for her. And her idea of helping was grabbing one leaf at a time to walk over to the trash bag. She was so sweet while doing it though that we couldn't complain. 

Naturally you could barely even tell that we did anything the next day. And then the snow came. So those leaves have met a suffocating death. That's ok with me :)
