Sounds yummy!
Unfortunately, it seems to be the norm in our neighborhood, finding ticks on our little ones after a romp in the leaves. It's making the fall season a tad less exciting. The other common denominator seems to be playing in the middle of the circle, near the gazebo.
Now that we are all well versed in tick removal, we gave in and let the kids play in the leaves again. They had a blast.

| Instead of jumping in leaves, they were sliding in leaves |

| My sweet blond |
 |
| A little extra splash of leaves at the end |
 |
| This screams "Ticks! Come get us" |
Once they started losing interest in the slide/fighting over the slide and rake, Daddio started some kind of ball throwing game. Lisa and I sat back and watched as the kids smiled and giggled at this simple game. Why don't we think of these things?! (do you really want me to answer that question...)
 |
| Yes, they were playing with Parker's ball |
 |
| Mid "ready, set...." |
 |
| Love them. Pretty soon Alex will be in the mix! |
After all that, no ticks were found :)
