Friday was a busy but great day for us! It was Casen's birthday obviously but Trever was going on his first field trip! His Pre-K Class was going to Brown Farms to pick strawberries!! Michael had taken off for Casens' birthday so he took one for the team and stayed home with him while I went to meet Trevers class at the farm! I say that Michael "took one for the team" bc it seems that once you have more than one kid, the time you get to spend with each one individually gets less and less. I usually am with Casen since he's "the baby" and is much more "needy" (aren't all men? jk :/ ) and Michael and Trever get to do "big" stuff a lot of times. Example: Michael recently took Trever to work with him for "Take your kids to work day" ( I just now realized that we don't have a pic of that...just great :( Memories, all about the memories, not pics...ok back to my story. So I was very excited to spend time with Trever by myself. (More excited than he was because as of last week he informed me that I was "boring" - that will be another post soon) ANYWAY, I know this is bad, but I have never actually picked strawberries from there or anywhere. I have bought them from there before and been there for other things but never to pick strawberries. This is one of those things you do "when you have time" ya know. I have to say their strawberry "patch" or whatever it is was very ...beautiful! It really was! I have never seen strawberries that looked so juicy and just beautiful! They tasted excellent and I can honestly say that we will not be buying any strawberries from the store this year but will be going to pick or buy them from there. Obviously you want to support your local businesses, "home grown" type produce is better for you anyway and it's fun!! Trever had a blast! Another thing this made me think of as I looked around and noticed that not every little 4 or 5 year olds parent(s) were there, was that God has truly blessed me with the best job in the world! I am SO very blessed to be able to stay home with my kids to raise them and get to go to things like this. Not every parent is this fortunate. God has truly blessed us! I am also thankful that I have a great husband that works so hard to help make this happen! I took some pics and we (all the parents) laughed so hard at Trever bc he cannot stand for the sun to be in the vicinity of his eyes or he scrunches his face up and it is just funny! He just cracks me up!
You have got to click on this pic to get a closer look at this face he is making! haha
Obviously I am just cracking up at Trever by this time...
I don't usually post pics of other peoples kids but 1) this parent wouldn't mind and 2) it just shows how funny these kids were about the "morning sun"
You can spot Trever ....the one shielding his eyes! lol
