Nathan has been bugging me for awhile..."when are you going to make us a leaf pile to jump in?" And my response has been..the leaves are too wet right now. Well, today the leaves were mostly dry and just a great day to tell Nathan "Hey, Nathan, let's go make a leaf pile!". He was so excited to have me rake the leaves and then tell him he could jump off the picnic table into the pile. Then we raked them at the bottom of the slide. He thought that was great fun too. Then he decided to have the leaves cover the whole slide from the bottom to the top. He worked hard at bringing the leaves up to the top of the playhouse and piling them up on the slide and then he was ready to go! When Brittany got home she got to join in on the fun. She came up with the idea of swinging and then letting go of the swing and jumping into a pile. The kids had a lot of fun enjoying God's creations.
I rake the leaves
When they fall down,
In a great big pile.
And when there are
Enough of them,
I jump on them awhile.
Red and yellow, green and brown.
Leaves are falling to the ground.
We pile them up OH SO HIGH:
Then we JUMP in!
Brittany and I!

Hey Sis,
I love that you've shared the fun of leaf pile jumping with your kids. Remember when we used to rake paths and "houses" in the back yard around the playhouse? What a great way to be creative and have some fun. The pics are great - especially the ones in the air.
Love you!

That looks like fun. Daniel wants to do it but we dont have any leaves...
