Photos of the Week: October 28

“You can’t stop the waves but you can learn how to surf.” – Jon Kabat-Zinn

We found a really fun pumpkin farm for a fall festival. It had a ninja course, zip lines, hay mazes, live animals, and great slides. But the biggest hits were the corn pit (they probably called it something more marketing friendly than that) and the tractor bikes. Every outing with coats on since, I find a steady trail of corn that continues to drop behind.

It’s a good day when you walk down to the lake in a spiderman sweatshirt and find a spiderman figurine wedged into the cracks. A doubly good morning when a heron is there too.

Ear muffs, playdates and signs. Cooper is finding his voice just like his predecessor, the dear departed Biscuit did.

We were having fix-the-deck-Sunday last weekend when the repair went later than expected and I had to put on my headlamp to finish. Mr. D thought that was great fun so every night this week he’s waited for it to get dark, and then asked if we can go fix the deck.

By the third night he asked, I’d figured out that he wasn’t going to be satisfied with my explanation that we try to do these things during the day. I set him loose on a board that I’d already pried up and removed the nails from earlier that day so that we only had to spend five minutes working at night instead of a half hour!

The sign and the heart of the week. The heart is a puddle of water on a slip cover for a boat.

  5. Looks like a super fun week. I was wondering at first what they were in on the two pics at the top. Yah, you’re gonna be finding corn kernels for a while! Love that Cooper has a friend. And the story of the late night porch fixing is so wonderful.

    1. Yep, we’re corny! But that’s not news. 🙂 The first night D asked to fix the porch in the dark it was rainy and windy. I thought “how the heck does this seem like a good idea to him?” Funny that he wanted to repeat that experience.

      Hope you guys are having a great weekend! ❤ ❤ ❤

  7. You know I love ALL of these…for many ‘my heart is full’ reasons…but I’m with Dr. Stein about the ballet fingers on Miss O. Wow…Never has a child gone down a slide with such grace. Those arms! Her fingers and hands! Give her a big hug from me…I think we see her future as a dancer! 🥰

  8. I’m particularly partial to the serendipitous Spider Man encounter. What are the chances? You had a very busy week, and the lovely Miss O is becoming very professional in her poses. 🙂 Thanks, as always, for sharing your precious family moments.

    1. I like that one too, Susan! Who’d have thought one would find a Spiderman while wearing Spiderman?

      Thanks for weighing in! Hope you have a lovely weekend! 🙂

  13. Love all your photos but this bunch is the best. Spiderman checking out Spiderman is a hoot. Plus your doggy photos, they’re the woof-woof-i-est. Miss O is photogenic regardless of her expressions.
