All Hands on Deck, or, Isn't This Why We Have These Kids?

This Wednesday I am hosting the neighborhood kids' Christmas party, and the impending idea of many neighbors seeing our house has put us into high gear to get this place spruced up. On Saturday, we tackled the never-ending leaves, and Josh managed to get about 35 leaves into the bag with a rake. It didn't put a dent in the billions that were left, but I'm thinking that next year he'll be big enough to operate the leaf blower. We could use another hand with this gargantuan annual task.

Molly did her part by cheering Josh on with some happy clapping and arm waving from the front step, and this morning she "helped" by pulling off the painters tape bordering our formerly green wall.

No more green walls?? You'll have to take a picture of the finished project. I'm curious.

Great shot of Josh raking! Give him a tight squeeze for me if he'll stay still long enough.
