A Day Raking Leaves

While I did not get much done inside the house today (maybe tomorrow) I did get a ton of raking outside....and I introduced my two older boys to the idea of outdoor chores ;) While I raked, they bagged....actually Tristen got bag duty and Kyle got poop duty....I know it is a dirty job but someone has to do it, and though we have a HUGE yard, for some reason the dogs favorite place to do their business is right on the only part of real back lawn we have....thanks....

We are completely surrounded by a Conservation area just about....and while it is pretty (VERY) and colourful and all that...the leaves this time of year is non stop, so while this is my first go around with the leaf picking up, there will be plenty more in the next month. Since we are trying to sell our house, it pretty much will be a constant. Hopefully tonight I will have time to do some laundry and baking....I need my weekly fix of banana bread thank you very much.



















These are my Puppies....Sushi, Sawyer, and Lucy....I love my dogs....well except for Lucy, who hasn't quite figured out that the dining room is not the poop place....grrrr....

Sushi MY Chow Chow :)

Sawyer the Crazy Ball loving dog



and Lucy....the trouble maker....




and here is my favorite shot of the day...a boy and his dog :)

I remember not minding raking somehow..being out in the crisp fall air and all that I guess. You have a lovely blog (stumbled in through twitter :) )
