I think my son is beautiful, especially in natural light and when he is enjoying himself. I paused in the middle of making chicken pot pie on the 24th to take these pictures of him delighting in play. Doesn’t he look like such a big kid?

Tunneling with Dad

I forgot about these photos from the beginning of the month so here they are now. Donnie got out the tent and tunnel for the first time in a long while, and Benjamin could barely control himself! He was crawling through the tunnel with Hobbes and then playing peek-a-boo in the tent until Donnie started [...]
BBQ & Bounce

Our church group has an annual BBQ & Bounce to help kick off the Bible studies, and we went for the first time this year. Because it’s chilly and dark here in the evenings, the bounce house was set up in the sanctuary lobby. The kids played until we ate and then played some more. [...]

Most of it involves mowing up and down the yard. In the few weeks since I took these pictures, his affinity for regimented mowing has decreased. What’s that in [...]

Two weekends ago, we headed to the Corvallis Fall Festival and met up with our friends, Brett and Hannah. (Note: I realized we forgot the camera as we were leaving Albany and decided it wasn’t worth it to turn back. So the only photos of us were kindly taken by Donnie’s phone and by Hannah [...]
