Make like a tree and.....

What better way to start the new year off than....

raking leaves...

Gosh I really loves the trees in our neighborhood, and that is one of the things that really drew us to this house, but this time of year, I do not look forward to...

Here we are raking up one section of the front yard into a pile / row to pick up


One trashcan and 9 bags later, it looks like this

The next section we did with the lawnmower, because its much easier on the areas that arent just completely COVERED in leaves...


(yes we make our child go outside and do manual labor, oh isnt it terrible....  we also make him brush his own teeth as opposed to having his man servant do it for him.  why you ask?  well because, we dont have a man servant.)

Of course we didnt worry about picking up all the leaves because they still arent all on the ground yet....

It will be 2 or 3 more weekends worth of work until we have them all picked up from the front and back yard..
