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.”

AppleJack Festival 2016

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

Des discovers a pair of gloves while mom is sorting his little sister’s “new” clothes. Five minutes of later, he has them on correctly and dad concludes mittens are clearly the way to go.
