Today we decided to enjoy the day with our kiddos and

let mowing and house cleaning wait. I started the day

by grooming both dogs (which took almost 2 hours)!

Then we headed to Patterson's Farm to pick strawberries.

Aiden was so cute...he was SERIOUS about his picking!

We told him what to look for and he examined each

berry thoroughly before picking it. I could hear him

saying...."No, dat one not weady" to himself as he

inspected them. It was priceless. After we picked

berries we went to visit the animals on the farm.

We got to hold a 2 wk old baby goat. After seeing

the animals, Mommy and Aiden went for a ride in

the "Cows", (yeah that does sound kinda strange).

Then we went to the ice cream shop and had

some yummy ice cream! After our time at the farm,

we came home to grill out. We had corn on the cob

(corn we got at Patterson Farm), potatoes and onions

(grilled together in foil packs) and marinated chicken.

For desert we had strawberry shortcake! After supper

we took the dogs for a walk around the neighborhood.

Bath time is over and both kiddos are in bed. The

lawn still needs mowed, the laundry is still needing

washed, the cars need cleaned out and the house

needs cleaning. Oh well, something are just not

that important! We made wonderful memories

today!
