  2. I like the coup de grĂ¢ce at the end with the stick.

  6. I have retaining walls on two sides of my property. Every year we rake the leaves over the edge, and then at the end of the season clean them all up in one swoop. Until then, it's a jumping free for all. Every year, my Christmas card is of the boys in the leaves.

    Love falling in Love with Fall!
