Summer Fun!

I love warm weather, especially when the kids can go outside to play!  Today was the first day of the sprinkler, pool, anything with water day.  I was impressed with Bryce when she came up with the idea of a homemade waterslide!  It made a big mud puddle at the bottom, which was their favorite part.  Thank the Lord we have a big sink in the garage!

Strawberry pickin' !

I always go and pick strawberries at Hunts Strawberry Farm in Knightdale every May.  This year I decided to take Mary, my youngest.  We had the best time!  She was at the perfect age.  She didn't eat any, stayed in the rows (most of the time), and did all of the picking!  I made a delicious strawberry cake, recipe courtesy of my dear friend Heather.  I think Mary ate the equivalent of 20-30 strawberries a day!  Until next year Hunts!

What a Life!

Time to catch up in blogville.  I thought I'd give Lennie, our cat, his fair share!  We rescued him from the mountains last year.  We had him in our camper one night before we came home, and the next time we went to the camper, it was FULL of fleas!  We had to bomb the camper and stay in a motel that night.  Talk about love!  We always call Lennie a girl for some reason, poor thing, even though he's an "it".  He loves to take naps, especially on our shutters in the dining room. We love you Lennie!
