A great family day

Today was wonderful day for our family! We went back to Patterson Farms today to pick more strawberries. The strawberries were picked over so we didn't get the huge, plump ones we got last time but we still got some good berries.

What made the day really great was that Daddy was actually off work for whole weekend and was able to go with us! The day was windy but otherwise the weather was great, and we also had a good time petting the goats and looking at the rabbits and chickens at the farm.

When we got back Daddy and a friend went to Lowe's Home Improvement Warehouse to buy the stuff to build the chicken coop. Hopefully he'll be able to do that next weekend as the chickens are growing rapidly!

We had such a great day, I wanted to post our photos to share before I went to bed.

Here's Dad with the kids in the strawberry patch. Justin is giving a thumbs up - I guess he enjoyed the day, too!

Here's the kids. Notice how Adam is looking at Justin? This is what we always try to tell Justin - that his little brother studies his every move and wants to be just like him. A good reason to set a good example!

And last but not least, here I am with my three blessings.

Wonderful family photo's. I find it is always a blessing here as well when daddy gets to not work on the weekend and can enjoy family outings as well.
