Autumn Leaves, Part 1- OOPS!

Today was a lovely 'Native Canadian' Summer Day (I thought I'd be politically correct here!) And there were soooo many leaves on our front lawn that were just waiting to be raked. So, after Ysabella's afternoon nap, off we went to gather and bag them. But not before Ysabella got to play in them, of course. This turned out to be quite fun for both of us, and an especially amusing shoot for her mommy, so it's going to take a few posts to cover all the pics that I want to put up. Patience, patience. ;)

These first set of pics are some of the many 'oops' shots. As anybody who takes a lot of pictures knows, you must shoot many, many photos, sometimes hundreds, to get just the right one. And when you take that many pics, you're bound to end up with a few like these...

I'm not sure how many times she has to put them in her mouth before she figures out that leaves just don't taste that good!
Ysa, wondering who the heck pushed her over!


I find this one particularly hilarious...she had just stuck the stem of the leaf up her nose. All the way up her nose. Needless to say, it didn't feel so good!

And finally Ysa says: "What the heck! This leaf is attacking me!!!!!!"
"GET IT OFF!!!!!"
