About a week and a half ago I took the kids out to my mom’s to help her clean her yard. She had a lot of leaves and I thought it would be fun to rake a pile and let the kids jump in. I have to say I was shocked by all the leaves she had. I’ve never seen that many leaves in her yard before. The kids had a blast playing outside and helping grandma. MaKena wasn’t too thrilled about playing in the pile of leaves at first but after she saw Jacob jump in she decided it was OK. And man did she have fun. I tried to get some good pictures of the kids but MaKena wouldn’t sit still long enough. I figured out how to use the continuous shot on my camera so I got some really neat pictures of the kids while they were jumping/playing in the leaves. Mom and I got sick of raking leaves so we decided we needed to figure out how to get the bagger on the mower. We were pretty impressed with ourselves when we figured it out. Once we figured that out, picking the leaves up wasn't so bad! We had a fun day playing outside at Grandma’s and helping her get her yard leaf free, for now!
MaKena helping grandma pick leaves up. She would pick them up one at a time and put them in the bag.
Notice the one leaf in her hand. She was so proud of herself for helping grandma!
Putting her leaf in the bag.
MaKena getting familiar with the pile of leaves. She didn't like going in the pile at first.
The kids having fun playing in the leaves.
Jacob relaxing in the leaves.
The next 3 pictures I took using the continuous shot button. This is Jacob getting ready to jump in the pile of leaves.
Jacob jumping in the leaves. Notice he's standing on his tip toes.
And now he's in the pile of leaves! 
This was one of the only shots I got of both kids looking at the camera.
I love this picture!!
This one too!
MaKena doing peek-a-boo. I used the continuous shot on the last 6 pictures.
