Leaves, leaves, and more leaves...

We were raking leaves when Suisham kicked the overtime winner in the Steelers game, so we missed it. Shaun is from our hometown and the only NFL football player our school, and county has ever produced, so everyone is pretty proud. The Steelers are also my Uncle Lumpy's favorite team and so I like to watch, if only for decent ammunition to use against him. No matter, while all of that fun stuff was going on we were raking, bagging, and burning leaves.

Zedder was a helping machine, that is, until she decided that she'd rather go to the park and play. I would have gladly done the same if given the option. She's a smart kid. Raking leaves sucks the mustard.

Now we're back in the house enjoying the Eagles and Bears..Zoey is playing with her dinosaurs and Daddy is enjoying the Champagne of Beers while Mom is brewing up some serious chicken soup. Life on the lake, or what we've got left of it, is pretty good.
