busy, busy in that great summer way.



This was one of those weekend that was jam-packed with summer-like fun.  We started with our annual strawberry picking through the organic farm we get food from in the harvest months. 
We have been doing this for 4 years and the boys love it so much they got ready for bed the night before discussing it and woke up ready to roll.  And, that was a good thing because we got lost on our way (they moved the picking field when the farm expanded and acquired another farm plot miles away from the old plot).  So, it took us a while to get there.

But, they were prepared to work hard and get muddy after an extended car ride.  Plus, the location meant that we got to take a TRACTOR RIDE to the field. This was, by far, the highlight.  Strawberries are great and all but TRACTORS! that takes the cake. 


Here is Jude and Papa demonstrating just exactly how they would drive the tractor if the farmer needed their help in an emergency.  Callum is skeptical of their approach.


 We also got down to visit Grandma and Grandad Crowley for a very important reason...their 40th wedding anniversary! The boys had a great time running around in their house and kicking the ball around their yard.  And, we all had great food and a great time to catch up. There was even a bit of glass-clinking to celebrate! Congratulations Grandma and Grandad!!





Yay for summer!
