Saturday

It seems that Saturdays are full of birthday parties, baby showers, baseball games and cookouts. I feel like we are always on the go. A couple of weekends ago we had a very busy schedule. Since our house had been battling sinus infections all week and finally out of quarantine we decided to spend our day outside. This was one of the best Saturdays in a long time. My awesome neighbors and I set up shop in a front yard and that is where we stayed until it got dark. Then we bathed the kiddoes and moved to another yard for dinner! I love our street. We are so blessed with families that have kids the same age as our kids. Families who agree that spending time outside is so much better than spending them inside with video games. Sometimes we need a little R&R. Forget the laundry, cleaning and day to day stuff! We relaxed all day!

Having a quick photo session with my new main man!

Strawberry Pickin’

Sunday we decided to head over to Froburgs to pick strawberries with Gretchen and Drew. We have been wanting to do this for a while, but never really have the chance and with Trace here it’s hard to do much with the boys ALONE! Trenton was super excited to pick his own strawberries! I think we will be making several trips back , PLUS their produce is just so much cheaper and fresher than the local grocery store.

We got two buckets full so we could have enough for Trenton’s birthday party!

Every time Trenton would find a big berry he would say “Look at this big one Mom”
