Leaf monster, leaf monster, 1-2-3...

...leaf monster, leaf monster, can't catch me!!
This is a game that Chris made up to play with the boys when they were babies, and he's been playing it with the kids every fall since then. As soon as there are enough leaves on the ground to rake up a decent sized pile, someone gets buried in them, while the rest of the family circles around and chants this song over and over. Then the "leaf monster" jumps up out of the leaves and tries to tag someone. The kids are mightily entertained by this simple game.

what a fun game:) I think my kids would love to join in on that game too! Whenever you get a chance I'd love to hear a nutshell account of how you and Chris met and ended up in Idaho (ya know...just sum up the last 12 years:) hehe

Sounds like such a fun game to play. My children would love it. It is always fun to see what is going on with your family.
