work


So, to start where my other pictures left off (I just downloaded last night)....
It is a cold blustery fall day in November. The leaves are over-ready to rake out of the gutter, and its been raining hard. That sets the stage for our "work party" of four. On this day it takes more effort than I have (without yelling) to try and make this outing fun.

Raking leaves is supposed to be fun, right. It has been in the past. Oh well, this was not the day. After much convincing (consequences included) the older 2 finally buckled down and had some fun. (because that is how fun happens right..by "buckling down"). I have much to learn. Levi himself was never convinced that this was anything other than a cold wet bother that he just didn't want to do.

  1. yeah...not gonna lie...it doesn't look that "fun" to me either! :) We had a couple BEAUTIFUL days here in Nov. that I took full advantage of to rake our mess of leaves up. :) Elijah looks like he is having fun at least! :)

  2. Wow, Christian would just love to get those leaves into his compost! We're rather lacking on organic material at this end of the country... :) I'm sure it gets tedious though.

  3. At least the leaves were pretty :-) Love Levi's scowl...reminds me of his Christmas performance in front of church!
