Leaves!

 We were in St. Louis for almost a week.  When we came home we found our yard completely covered in leaves.  It was like seeing winter's first snowfall for us!  The kids were besides themselves with excitement.  I stepped out of the car, went straight to the garage, got a rake, and quickly made a huge pile to jump in.  We left it like that for a week.  I just couldn't bear to rake them up.  This was the first time the kids had seen so many leaves in one place.  I even caught Big George jumping in!  Now they're all in the street ready to be picked up but we still have two huge maples on our side yard that haven't dropped yet.  :)  Oh Happy Fall!

So cute! Our leaves are just starting to drop -- millions of acorns have already landed though! Great photos and great fun!
