Post a Comment On: the us in russ

The Russes gave to me… Some hand picked STRAWBERRIES! It’s strange to think that it was hot here once because I’m wrapped in a blanket freezing as I type this. I guess that’s what you get when you’re playing blog catch up. Anyway, back when it was warm outside we organized a little outing to the Strawberry Fields (thinking Beatles?) The kids LOVE strawberries so I REALLY wanted to take the kids to pick some. It was an ambitious outing involving BLISTERING heat, a little bathroom accident (when do they ever really become potty trained??) and a long, HOT (did I mention it was HOT) walk to the field. [Image] It was funny watching the kids realize that they can actually eat the strawberries they pick off the vine (and the ground). [Image] [Image] but oh, how sweet they were!! (and they made delicious jam!!) They had a great time hunting for the strawberries. [Image] And picking the strawberries was almost as much fun as climbing in the tree afterwards!! [Image] I had to include this one because of our strollers in the background. The funny thing is that a few of my friends with Phil & Teds didn’t make it. You should see the stroller line up when we’re all together! LOVE that stroller!!
