Joining Monica for Joy Pockets with my favorite moments of the week...
This week has been about sinking into home again. Wandering is wonderful, but finding rhythm feels even better...
cooler weather, oh thank you thank you thank you...
which means knitting again...yes...
an impromptu Halloween party with just the four of us, complete with yard decorating, monster mashing music, crazy owl crafts, cobwebs, monster toes, and a homemade Halloween cake :)...
listening to a girl and her daddy play a piano and poetry game...
my blogiversary
my blogiversary
The Cobra Weave Bomb--oh yes we will! And here is how if you want to too...
M. at bedtime: "mom, you don't understand! my eyes are choosing not to close!"
the special connection between a boy and his grandfather
the beautiful vintage polaroid sx-70 land camera...
Have a beautiful weekend friends!!
xoxo
how fun to have an impromptu party together.
ReplyDeletethat's a great shot of a web.
"my eyes are choosing not to close!" - excellent.
what a gorgeous camera. film's expensive though isn't it? worth it?
we've also been refinding our home rhythm, it's so good when it's there.
Love that web. Love those polaroids. Is it hard to find the film?
ReplyDeletea beautiful weekend to you too :)
ReplyDeleteOh all of those photos are wonderful! Sounds like a fantastic week of settling back in.
ReplyDeleteWe had the exact camera when I was a kid and we always thought how "modern" it was {ha, ha}. Have a great weekend. I just saw you are suppose to get a lot of rain so enjoy [I wish it was here!]. xx
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful moments! Ah, I am so excited I won something, will email you my address. I am loving that cute crazy owl! Have a beautiful weekend lovely! Jacinta x
ReplyDeleteoh ezra and M are so alike in the sleep department. his eyes are always open long after i've closed mine. and recently when he was upset at soccer practice in tears was saying, "my eyes won't stop crying!"
ReplyDeleteO M G!!!! it’s moments like these that i remember why i blog! it’s to be inspired from people across the country like you and tracy! her bird and your cobra have just given my life meaning for the weekend! the cobra is really just insane. i’ve never seen anything like it and my kids are going to freak out!!! especially after we eat 600 popsicles in one morning!! :)
ReplyDeletesmile smile smile! can’t wait to do this!

have a good one!!!
First of all, that first photo is amazing! I love sitting back and enjoying as your photography gets better and better. Not that it was ever lacking! Perhaps one day I'll actually take time to learn new things about my camera and photography. On the list!
ReplyDeleteI love M's bedtime line, and the idea of a piano and poetry game. I can only imagine the creativity that involved! Also, families that have impromptu parties together are probably the best kind of families out there. That sound so fun, and I can only imagine the memories made for M and E.
Happy weekend! xoxo
great shots, Love that owl!
ReplyDeleteAs always, your photos are breathtaking. Love, love, love the spider web!! Here's mine
