In all of his excitement, trying his darndest not to drop the tomato

Can’t visit the garage without Des sitting on the “vroom vroom’s.” Maybe one of these days he’ll actually hear them go, “vroom vroom.”


Des and mom ventured to Fontenelle Forest Saturday morning while dad continued work on the new room


Immediately texted to mom, of course

Hardware helper

He’s pretty stoked mom made apple sauce

After dinner popsicle (shared with dad) and tricycle ride

Workin’ in the bedroom
new paint brush, brush

Unlike last year, Des spent most of this year on foot at the annual family visit to Nebraska City for the AppleJack Festival.


Ok, maybe a quick break in the wagon with pa

A boy and his sack of apple (just the one)

The grapes were pretty sour (and likely not meant for public consumption anyway), but that didn’t stop him from each a literal bunch

It was quite the hike, even with the nice weather, so he was pretty tuckered out by the end

But nothing a quick lunch picnic won’t fix, he was quickly back to playground with his cousins


Hot mess Des says, “no!”

Des lends a hand with the bedroom restoration, by hiding the step stool and himself in the closet…

…repeatedly defying great heights…

..but eventually, fixing the mortise lock.
