strawberry picking...mmmmm!!

In early June we went one morning to Spencer Farm to pick strawberries.  It's one thing I have been wanting to do for awhile and we always seem to miss strawberry season.  We picked the perfect cool morning and meet Mamaw at the strawberry patch to pick or according to the boys pick and eat right away :)  They had fun regardless!

Get to work picking mama!
mmm...mmm...good!!!
She was a great strawberry picker!
And yes he was a great eater :)
Hey,  I picked some!
She likes to pick strawberries, but was not a fan of how they tasted!
The chin gave it all way at the checkout counter!
Cormac picked straight from the box...to eat!
Surveying the fields...
I love my strawberry picking crew!

Thanks Mamaw for helping!
This is what came home with us!
Stained hands means you were hard at work!
I think a certain little boy may have eaten too many!
(just noticed the yellow port-a-potty right behind..haha!!)
Love that stained little face!
Plenty of room for quick treat
I have no idea what he is doing, but it's pretty cure :)
mint chocolate chip....our favorite!
Thanks Spencer's we'll be back!!!

May wrap-up!

A great soccer season wrapped up at the end of May!  The Tough Tangerines played well, scored some goals and I think won one game :)  Maryn and her friends had fun and that's all that matters!






Just some fun backyard photos :)

Memorial Day weekend at the lake...brrrr!!

Memorial Day weekend at the lake was CHILLY!!!  While we bundled up in our warm clothes the kids still had a blast playing the sand, eating smores, and taking boat rides.  I actually kinda like taking a boat ride in the evening snuggled up in a blanket :)

Our co-captains :)

Watch out lake...Cormac is mobile this year!!
Construction crew :)

Indy 500 Parade!

Memorial Day weekend we headed downtown to the Indy 500 Parade.  As in previous years, Jeremy's work hosts a big family event...food, balloon animals, music and the favorite for our kids, cotton candy!   It was a welcome surprise that the temperature was cool and not sweltering, we actually enjoyed the parade so much more!  Last year Cormac slept through the parade and so this year he was so excited to see the big balloons coming down the street.  Such a fun day!

Cotton candy can be a drum while you wait for the parade to start!
Why bother waiting...let's get to eating!
Ready to watch with Daddy!
Gotta stay behind that blue line Cormac :)
Here come the loud motorcycles!
Grover!!
Maryn and Mommy
Clifford!!!
I foresee a sugar high coming!
