The leaf doesn't fall far from the tree!

We FINALLY had the chance to play in the leaves! We waited for the leaves to fall off the big Maple tree (because they're the biggest and most abundant), but they fell so late this year, so we didn't get to play in them until the middle of November!

And we were so happy when they finally did!

So, we threw them up in the air!

We threw them at each other!

We jumped in them!

We buried each other with them!

We made angels in them!

And we played in them for hours until we were too cold to enjoy them anymore! I'm so glad that we did, too, because the very next week, dad sucked up all the leaves in the mower the day before it snowed and snowed. (p.s. Notice the green grass in the middle of November? That's absurd!)

The leaves are all gone now, but our one and only play-day in the leaves was perfect.

All those leaves are one of my favorite memories of Grandma's house. I can still smell them!
