He's back!

Henry has not been feeling too well these past few days but this morning he seemed to turn the corner and now he is back to his sweet, healthy self. Here is our boy at play...

I'm not a very good camerawoman...

Sneak peek...

Addison, Sophia, and Harper at the studio waiting for their pictures. Fun that we were all there at the same time!
Recital is right around the corner! Sophia got to wear her costume today (with make-up!) to take pictures at the studio. Can't wait for the performance!

Jammin'

Strawberries are washed, rinsed, and capped. These girls are ready to make some jam!
Official taste tester...
So proud...

After our fun morning picking strawberries we headed back to G and P's to have lunch and to make jam! Henry and Pop took a nap while Grammy and Sophia got to work. We had some of the yummy, strawberry goodness on our toast this morning and it was delicious! Good work, ladies!

Strawberry Picking. Check!

Let the picking begin!
Sophia and Pop hard at work.
Sophia made a bucket out of her hat. Brilliant!
Me and my girl.
Little hands and beautiful berries
Look who's awake!
This girl knows how to pick 'em!
We had so much fun strawberry picking at Miller Farms this morning! The weather was perfect and the strawberries were plentiful! Our poor Henry is a little under the weather so he missed out on a lot of the fun but Grammy was sweet to watch our sleepy guy in the car while Sophia, Pop, and I picked. So excited to cross another item off of our bucket list!

Stay tuned for a post on the strawberry jam Grammy and Sophia made this afternoon!

Our May Day

We celebrated May Day with a trip to the WFS pool! It was the opening day for the pool and the water was a little chilly but we had a great time. Looking forward to many more trips this summer!
Ready to go!
Henry ready for his first trip to the pool.
It didn't take this girl long to get used to the chilly water.
Pool fun! Henry has a habit of sticking out his tongue...
Here we go again...
And, again.

Popsicles. Check!

Sophia was so excited to make popsicles last night but waiting for the juice to freeze can take some patience. When Sophia woke up this morning she said, "Mom, can I have a popsicle for breakfast? I have been dreaming of popsicles all night long!" So here is our girl with her homemade, mango treat! 

One thing checked off of our list!
