Playing in the Leaves

One of the nice things about living in a townhouse is that we don't have to mow the lawn, shovel the snow, or rake the leaves. But because the yard service is so efficient, we only have a short window each week to play in the leaves before they are raking up or caught by the leaf-blowers. Conor has been extra excited about going outside these days. I tried to show the kids how fun it was to make a pile of leaves (by kicking and carrying them into a pile since we don't even own a rake) and jump or lay in them. Just as fun as I remembered from when I was a kid!
