Practice, practice, practice!

This weekend, we’re back at the beach on Whidbey Island visiting our favorite heron. Its print in the sand is as big as my foot.

As much as I love this beach in the summer, I think I might like it even more in October. The driftwood is awesome, it feels quieter (not that its ever very loud or busy), and the sun is milder so we aren’t having to run for the shade or the pool.

If Cooper could read, he’d put the knife down. Maybe the sign of the week only applies to humans because he still attracts a pretty nice tribe. 🙂

  7. What beautiful photos, Wynne. I love that the school organizes these activities for family. And the photos of the kids by the beach are so lovely. I love the weather this time of year.

    And Miss O and I share another connection – I also played the clarinet in school!

  10. Sounds like you and your made your weekdays count! The beach and the sea in October both sound nice. I am sure the sun feels great. This weekend finds us at our refuge, too. Enjoy and refresh. Peace.

  14. Mr. D is young yet, but based on that photo of him running in the rain, I’d say you’ve got a natural on your hands there. His form is perfect!

    Perfectly framed, awesome pic of the Space Needle!

  16. Big fan of things like move-a-thons. I hope some of the staff participated with the kids. We had PE at the end of the day. I made no apologies for showing up at school meetings all hot and sweaty.

    If Cooper starts filetting his hamburger or steak, I will really be impressed.

  19. My youngest daughter played the clarinet in high school. My oldest the saxophone. All the days of attending band recitals. Now my granddaughter plays the violin, so we attend orchestra instead of band. But I love hearing the kids play and watching how they improved each year.

  21. I love your “photos of the week” posts. Miss O and Mr. D are having a blast. Cooper is such a good dog. He is handling the knife pretty well and even trying to give it to you the right way, handle first. He couldn’t hurt a soul with that face—I think. 😂
