OK. All caught up. At least for now. This was Friday evening. We had been in the house for a while, so we headed outside to check the mail. On our way back, we found a gianormous amount of fallen leaves up again the wall of our condo complex. The boys asked if they could play in them and I said, "YES!! Let's play!"
We started fairly innocently with leaf throwing, crawling through them, and sitting in them.
Then running and jumping into them from the ground. Then I gathered them all up into a corner of the wall and we moved to jumping off the wall into the leaves. Ollie ran inside and got a little chair, which he hauled all the way back outside to us, so they could climb up on the wall by themselves. That left me free to continuously fix the leaf pile, making it suitable for big time wall jumping fun!
At which point, Ollie did this! A head first dive, off the wall, into the massive leaf mountain! It was brilliant!! But by then, it was unfortunately getting dark and it was time for us to stop playing. Good thing we had a ward Christmas dinner to go to that night or I don't think I could have convinced them to stop.

What a great mom you are!!
Love the head dive shot! You are such a fun mom!
Never in your family will there be a cooler picture then Ollie head first in the giant leaf pile.
Wow. I am so impressed that you got that shot of Ollie in the leaf pile. It is just about perfect. We, too, were excited when one morning all the leaves had fallen off the trees.
