Blueberries & Friends

Alright, I'm on a roll tonight...so one more post before calling it a night!

In early June, my dear friend Amber and her family came for a visit from Ft. Worth.  We typically only get to see each other once or twice a year at the most, so we were thrilled to have them down for a visit.  Amber's little boy Tate is a few months older than Joseph and Maeve is 18 months. 

Amber & John and kids arrived on a Friday afternoon.  After lunch and naps for the kids, they all had a great time playing together. I was really excited for Joseph to have a little boy to play with that is his age since most of his friends at this point are girls that we have playdates with. 

Saturday morning, we all went to the blueberry farm to pick some blueberries!  This is the same place we have gone the past couple of years.  The mosquitoes were awful unfortunately given all the rain from the week before...but the berries were abundant! We all filled our buckets and were back home by 11:15am.  We put the kids swim suits on and they had lots of fun playing in the sprinkler with a picnic lunch on the patio!   After naps, they were back out in the sprinkler and blow up pool and played until dinner.  What a nice day!

Amber and I had so fun catching up and enjoyed just chatting on the couch after the kids were all asleep.  And Michael and John are long lost sports soul mates so they discussed all the big sports talk while making us sit through Rocky IV, ug.   :P
