This was a week. Our son got over his strep and was back at school on Wednesday. He also had his first soccer game ever that night (it was supposed to be Monday but he had to miss that game).
Other than that - my wife took my 12yo daughter to see VP Harris at a rally this week; they had an absolute blast. Who knows where she’ll land politically but it’s exciting to begin fostering some sort of attention or care to the world around us (regardless of what that will end up looking like for her).
This weekend we hit 2 different farms. On Saturday we went to one with a corn maze, pumpkin patch and apple cannon. My son’s favorite part was the absolutely ==giant== vat of dried corn kernels that the kids could play in. Today after church we drove into the mountains to an apple orchard where we picked apples and played. Again - a big hit with the kids. The apple orchard especially was nice as it reminded us of South Africa and visits to orchards and farm stalls (especially peregrine farm stall).
