This week we've raked and bagged TONS of leaves from our front yard AND we've played in the snow!!! One day we had light jackets on and the next heavy coats and hats!!
This year because of the economy our city wasn't able to come and pick up our leaves that we used to rake to the curb. So we had to rake them and take them over to the yard waste place where they take it and make it into free mulch for the community. Monday was a very warm day here so we made a day of it....the kids loved it, Matt worked HARD, and we all chipped in to bag all the leaves! We should of counted but all and all it was around 30 full bags! The next day came the rain and then the snow! Which meant time to put up the tree! Ava and Cooper are at such fun ages for this...(well, besides all the glass ornaments and potential for pulling over the tree:) They have had more fun with the empty boxes and tins that I put under the tree I'm beginning to think who needs the real thing!
Today brought more snow...I really do enjoy it....when it's just covering the ground and we are able to go about our normal day driving wherever we want. We debated on going to the Lebanon Horse Drawn Carriage Parade but decided at the last minute this morning to go for it.
The kids LOVED it! There were around 150 carriages pulled by all kinds of different horses...many of them dressed up for the occasion! I love this pic of Coop...this is what he did for each one...giddy as could be and waving his little hand. Side note - LOOK at this gettup! This snowsuit is from the 70's...you guessed it, it was Matt's!!! We couldn't resist:) He'll hate us when he gets older but it sure was fun today!
