Mother’s Day Weekend

11 May

I got my super nice totally unexpected Mother’s Day gift earlier this week when Verizon accidentally activated my brand new iPhone and thus making my current iPhone inoperable. A very confused Verizon customer service rep thought I was truly clueless when I explained there was no iPhone 5 on my account, I just wanted my iPhone 4 to make calls.

We decided to head to Shlagel Farms today to meet up with Mom, Leigh and Chip to pick strawberries and it was perfect timing. The weather was a little overcast but no rain spoiled our trip. We got lots of berries and even ran into some friends.

Miss H remembered the swing set from last year and was quick to meet a friend to join her on the double swing. They got it really high!

Speaking of Miss S- she does not like the vacuum.

But she does like empty plastic bottles.

After all this excitement, we decided to head to a Japanese Steakhouse not far from our house. Miss H loves ‘food as entertainment’ and Kerry’s dad had never experienced the fire, the volcano or the flying shrimp. Everyone was full and happy. And, Miss H did a pretty good job with the ‘chompsticks.’

Hope everyone is having a nice weekend!

Early Birthday Celebration

22 Apr

Kerry’s birthday is coming up soon but we celebrated this weekend because we have family coming into town the next two weekends. Saturday was a perfect evening for steaks (and seafood for me)! When I made the reservation, I mentioned Kerry’s birthday so he was spoiled with a dessert plate. I enjoyed the chocolate items while Kerry stuck with the vanilla and strawberry flavors :-)

Also, this weekend, Miss S started puppy classes and she was worn out by the time she got home. We have had a few incidents of torn pants, stolen smoothies (she took Miss H’s right out of her hands) and general puppy mischief this week. Hopefully, she becomes the star pupil soon. I am still shocked when people ask me, ‘what type of dog is she?’ I feel like the ears give it away!

Miss H and I met friends at the park on Sunday and enjoyed the sunshine and company. All the kids were exhausted after three straight hours of running around.
