Strawberry Picking for MiKay







Mikaela and I went strawberry picking. It was a MOMS Club outing but we missed it due to swimming lessons. So MiKay and I went later that morning. She spent the entire time running after other little kids but once she figured out she could eat the berries she picked she got the hang of it. We were both a mess by the time we finished. To our surprise there were other moms there dress in their good clothes what were they thinking. All they did was complain on the hay ride back that their feet hurt from their high heeled sandals and they were strawberry stained. MiKay and I looked like we fell off he hay truck but we had a blast diggin the dirt looking for red berries.
She did AWESOME looking for only the red red berries. As you can see from out bucket we got 5.5 lbs of strawberries @ $1.99 a pound . Yes people, a pound!! Some place are $5.49 per quart.
Grandpa John you need to come down to go strawberry picking with us before the season is over. They are the cheaping strawberry picking farm around and the strawberries taste awesome!

Mudroom project in progress





Check it out Matty is on a role.. I am helping a little, what little I can do. Matty finally tiled the floor. I was going to do it until we read that there was lye in the cement or grout. I did end up helping with the grouting process. I did wear gloves. Wow what a job! It was harder because we bought textured porcelain tiles and the grout was in the groves pretty good. Matty did a wonderful job meticulously laying the tiles. It looks great now that the room is primes and tiled. Check out the stairs and the tile job
