The Leaves have left

Today was a fairly productive day. I hung our Christmas tree lights outside and Cathie and I got outside with the kids and raked our big 'ol yard full of leaves, even with Cathie's hurt foot. We had a billion stinking leaves to bag up, but it's done, and it felt good to get it done. The leaves were wet from the melting snow so they weren't much good for playing in. We got them all cleared up just in time for us to get an inch of snow tonight.

Nate and Maddie helped rake the leaves (referring to one of the rakes as a hoe) and asking lots of
questions about the hoe, like "Dad, does this hoe work?" and Nate asking "Dad, can I have the hoe?" all of which made me laugh and Cathie to give me looks that said, "don't say a word".
