Leaves are a Child's Playground

Today was such a beautiful day that we had to take a break from the daily routine to take a walk in the park (in our back yard). The three older boys couldn't contain their energy any longer and sprinted down the windy park path. They stopped and waited to cross the street until I managed to mosey on up and then they were off like a shot with only a faint hint of dust to mark the way.

When I finally caught up to David and Donovan I discovered them hiding beneath a huge pile of leaves! We've done our best to keep the leaves off the lawn so that it would look nice and presentable. Here in the park the city crew had just blown all the leaves off the sidewalks and into great piles in random places in the park. This pile happened to be on the path (so much for clearing the sidewalks) and the boys couldn't resist. It was the cutest thing!
