Buggy is getting to be such a responsible babysitter! It's so nice that she is old enough to watch her sister (with adult supervision nearby)! Peaches LOVED when she would play with her in the water. So sweet!
While Daddy went to his fancy dinner on Monday night we took the kids to the park. I'm so glad we didn't end up going because it took them almost TWO hours to get their food! The kids would have been bouncing off the walls!
Instead we were swinging, sliding, and having fun!
Peanut has been working at the monkey bars for months! She finally conquered them a few weeks ago and now she is a pro!
Peaches LOVES slides and has lost all fear of them. She was actually making ME a little nervous climbing the steep steps up to this slide. :P
We had to do the annual growth pictures!
And I had Bug and Boo get a picture here like the one they got when they were little.
So Peanut and Peaches wanted one too. :)
Silly girl!
We got to do something new this year...one of T's coworker has a father who owns a cherry orchard. They had just finished their harvest and everything that was left will now go to waste (actually pretty awful when we saw the millions of cherries still on the trees :( the downfalls of agriculture in the USA).
So we got to have all the cherries we could pick!
The blue bin is called a lug I guess and we had four adults and 6 kids pick 4 of them in a little over an hour.
We got several different kinds of cherries and they were WAY better than anything you could buy in the store!
Another interesting thing...the yellow cherries have to have a certain percentage of "blush" to be sold so they put foil on the ground to reflect the sun and essentially sunburn them!
Cutie Boo! She helped Ms A pick pie cherries! We ate cherries for weeks, and Noni made some cherry jam and canned cherries! Haha!
Noni took this picture from our room. The rest of us are walking across the bridge...little specks. :)
Our last morning I let the girls watch cartoons while Noni and I got packed up.
Sweet girl!
Peaches discovered she could draw with her toes. Haha!
Without a doubt the best part of the trip for Peaches was the ducks. She was SO excited to see, "BA-BEE DUCKS! Qua Quack!"
Noni took Peanut and Peaches to feed the baby ducks our leftover Cheerios while we were getting ready to go.
Aww!
Then after lunch we had some extra french fries so they took us to their spot.
:)
I think we counted over 30 including two different sets of ducklings!
What a fun trip!
Thanks for all the help Noni!
