Brett spent yesterday raking all the leaves on the lawn, front and back. Since then the front yard is covered in leaves again....:) All we have to do is rake them to the curb. Then this machine comes and vacuums them up. It is quite convenient. While Brett was raking leaves yesterday we let Marshy out in the backyard. We let Parker out too but he was too scared to stay out. We left the back door open so he could go in and out when he wanted. He opted to just sit on the rug right inside the door.
As you can see, Marshy was truly enjoying himself. Rolling in the grass and everything. He even chased after a squirrel once. Too bad I was too slow to get that on video. Would have been hilarious to see him running. :) And so, life continues to go on around here - not much has changed except the color of the leaves. Two houses down from us and across the street, people were moving in today. I think I will bake cookies (or rather, have Brett make cookies...) and bring them over. I have no idea if they are young or old or anything, but maybe they can be new friends or something. We are going to Josh and Anna's house tonight for supper and to just hang out. Thankful for friends!
Also - a big shout out to my little sister Laura, who turns 22 today!! Wish we were closer to celebrate with you Laura! Miss you and love you.
