"Why not wait until all the leaves have fallen?" you might ask. Because I tried that once. And it only took once. I made a pile of leaves I wasn't sure I could get out of. I killed half the grass in my backyard and probably irritated the heck out of my neighbors, because all of my leaves didn't stay in my yard, and halfway through I honestly didn't know what to do with them all. So now I rake each section of my yard twice a year and determinedly have lots of fun doing it. It is a good excuse to go outside in the sunshine during an otherwise rather glum time of year.
Of course, it's not so fun three days later when you see all your hard work erased...


Oh my goodness! R is so big in that photo (the one of him from behind).
