Down with the leaf blower!

Mark bought a leaf blower today. It was a good purchase. We have A LOT of trees in our backyard, therefore, we have A LOT of leaves on the ground right now. 'Tis the season. The kids, however, are not very happy with the purchase their dad has made. They think we should only use rakes to rid our yard of leaves, because it is SO much more fun to rake than simply blow. They are outside at this very moment, raking away, in protest of their Dad's purchase. They are too funny.
