The Blount's: Raking Leaves

After I posted the Halloween pics the other night I realized that I hadn't posted anything since June. We were so busy this summer doing fun things that to sit down at the computer and post pics was the last thing on my mind. Now that the days have slowed down and it is getting darker I am having more time inside to do these things. I will try to remember in the coming weeks to post some of the fun things that we did this summer.

I spent today at my Grandma's house and it was time to rake the leaves from the two big maple trees in the back yard. We worked very hard for most of the day and then at the end the boys wanted a BIG pile so they could jump in the leaves. I raked a big pile many many times so they could jump their little hearts out. I am amazed at how big they have gotten and it really hit just how much they are turning into such fun and wonderful little boys, not baby's anymore. Hunter asked on the way home tonight how much longer until it's his birthday and I told him 23 more wake ups. To him this is FOREVER but for me it will be here tomorrow. I can't believe that I am going to have a 5 year old! He is truly amazing and a complete little sponge who asks the most surprising questions and teaches me how little I really know. Brayden is stringing words together so quickly that I can barely keep up with him each day.

Here are some pics from today, it was such a beautiful day!
