Over the weekend, we took the girls strawberry picking, one of our favorite traditions of the year!! Last time we went, I was 36 weeks pregnant, hot as hell, and dreaming of what bringing both our little ladies would be like. And of course, it was way better than I ever imagined. These kinds of memories are the absolute best, the ones that make all the craziness so very worth it.
We came home with buckets of strawberries, some crushed, and made a steak & salmon dinner with the yummiest strawberry shortcake for dessert. We have had a crazy start to the new year with my new job & things are finally starting to settle down, this little family outing was exactly what we needed and I enjoyed every single minute.
Even the random gas station we had to make a pit stop at for an emergency toddler potty break AND the strawberry stains I have been cleaning ever since. 🙂
PS. One for the memory books, because I’m seriously obsessed with everything Waverly Maye says lately. On our drive she asked Avalon what she wanted for her birthday (from her), then of course answered for her, “oh, a horse, I’ll get that for you. Or candy. Which one?” Because obviously they are exactly the same sort of thing.
PPS. Kids hunter boots like the pair Waverly are wearing are on sale!!! There are three options,
these for toddler, little and big kid, and
these or
these for just little and big kid. We LOVE Hunter boots, they are some of Waverly’s favorite shoes to wear and they just make everything extra cute.
Too stinking cute, those girls
I seriously need to do this with P! Plus these strawberries taste so much better than the ones at the store!
Your pictures look FANTASTIC! Like seriously impressive.
I want to take the girls berry picking so badly!
Ashley, these pictures are gorgeous! I especially love that second one with Waverly and the strawberry! I'm always so jealous of the strawberry fields everywhere else since Utah doesn't seem to have them. But we do have our own patch in our backyard!
