A Big Thud

So it was a very quiet afternoon.
The kids were outside playing
I was on the couch reading my book
and Grandma was in the kitchen working.
When we hear this big THUD outside.
Grandma looked out the window and said
"Oooh Russell down and ......he is up"
So this is what happened.

Russell was running outside with the girls and he fell down hard!
He hurt his pinkie finger and the side of his eye!
Luckily, all is well nothing was broken just a little bruised.

Strawberry Fields Forever

Grandma Arlene took us Strawberry picking today.
We picked 12 lbs, heaven only knows how many
pounds Kimberly ate! She would pick one and put in
her bucket and then eat 4! It was so funny!














Grandma made Russ a Strawberry Ru barb pie
We had them on ice cream


On our cereal.




I made my first batch of freezer jam! YUM

We froze a bunch and Grandma made us

Strawberry Daiquiris

Battleground Lake

The boys wanted to go for a run today
so we drove up to Battleground Lake.
Kimberly and I went for a walk while
the boys went for a run.
It was a beautiful day!
Sunny and cooler than we are used to!










Going to Grandma and Grandpa's

We drove up to Washington to visit Grandma and Grandpa.
We haven't been up to see them in the past 4 years.
It was so much fun to visit and let the kids get to know them.

The drive is so pretty going up there.
The kids wanted to get out and see all of the water.




We even got Grandpa to play American Idol on the WII
