We Play... with Leaves


Hunter and friend he met at a campground, making "leaf soup".

Which later turned into autumn-in-the-summer time leaf pile jumping.

Followed by accompanying sticks which became swords, then guns.

And a later adventures in the "jungle" getting the "bad guys" (or "lions", which apparently live in jungles).

"For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreadeth out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat cometh, but her leaf shall be green..." 
Jeremiah 17:8


We Play


Hunter is 5 years, 5 months old

  2. I know, kids are so endlessly creative, I love seeing their imagination take off with such simple things. Especially in nature. :)
