Autumn Leaf Delight at the Playground

Laura and Charlie enjoying the crunch of the leaves at the playground this morning.

I tried to be an observer, not a participant. Watched them play together.  Just kept shooting, trying to be unobtrusive.

Kept my distance and sorry I  didn’t have a zoom lens.

It was a happy time.  A joy to watch Charlie have fun in the leaves.

The bear hat doesn’t quite fit right but old grandma will knit another one.

Big slide, the swings, finding a shadow, mommy hide behind the tree trunk, throw the leaves, kick the leaves, stomp and crunch pick up a big stick.

No shortage of games and activities.

He was trying to master the balance beam, figure it out.  Too hard but the fact he was trying was something to watch.

One direct smile at old Froo Froo Ruthie.

Yes he knew I was there!  Hard not to notice that sock monkey who sits on the 24-70 lens.

  1. So wonderful and the bear hat is the best!
    I also like the scale in some of the photos – the ones that remind us how small he is/ so precious

  2. These are such precious moments. How wonderful you were able to capture them in these lovely photos.

Thanks for your visit. It's always good to hear you stopped by.
