Leaves, Leaves, Leaves!

| November 23, 2013

Every year we seem to have a million leaves to rake up. Which is not fun. What is fun, is Sam playing in them. And basically disassembling the pile Mark created… But that’s ok. I still remember the first year we tried to get her to play in the leaves she was so scared! Now, of course, she loves it. Here are some pictures of the cutie pie having a blast.

She stopped hurling leaves in the air long enough to show us her smile, but only for a moment.

We weren’t sure what this cluster of leaves or dried up flowers in her hand was, but she was completely enamored with it. When she wanted to keep jumping around, she asked me to hold it so it wouldn’t get lost.

I love the windblown look – she is like a forest nymph.

Ok, done being adorable – it’s time to have fun!

Right before she decided she was cold and went in the house, Sam got the idea that it would be fun to use her Hippity Hop through the leaves. I didn’t think she could do it, but she did!  Pretty impressive, I think.

I think that’s it for our leaves this year. All Sam needs now is some snow!
