Mature Lot, Really?

When we were looking at houses, one of the top things on our list was a mature lot, in other words, lots of trees. Every fall around this time I find myself asking, “Mature lot, really?”

Our tree in the front, takes forever to drop it’s leaves. It’s usually done right before the snow comes and in the spring when the snow is gone, we have a very unattractive lawn, ewww. This year we have been extra good with raking the leaves that have fallen so far. The weather has also been cooperative. In addition, we have this extra little bonus of a child called, Dagny. It has been so much fun taking her outside and having her play in the leaves. So I guess I’m still loving the mature lot idea.

So worth it!

  1. I love these photos, she is such a happy child. I hope Dagny had a great second birthday party! Wish we could have been there! Looking forward to seeing those photos.

  2. I hope the same… however, you guys are raising Dagny to be independent and have a mind of her own 🙂

  3. I like to think it’s going to be the Terrific Two’s. I just hope Dagny thinks the same way as I do.

  4. After seeing Dagny at work with the rake, definitely go for the mature lot! At least you’ll enjoy the leaves even if they don’t get picked up 🙂

    The countdown begins… 5 more days until 2 years old (notice, I didn’t say the terrible two’s – I don’t think this little angel has that in her).
