Strawberry & Raspberry Picking at Nanny & Pop-Pop's


The girls LOVE nothing more than to spend time with both Grandma & Grandpa Kunkel & Nanny & Pop Pop Brownfield. Matt & I are both so blessed to have loving, caring parents who want to have a very active role in our children's lives. When we had Ella we decided that moving close to family was what we wanted most for our children. I love seeing the girls with the grandparents! I know that those memories will be the most precious ones for them, and they will carry those memories with them throughout their lives.


Saturday Aug. 16 we stopped by for a visit at Nanny & Pop-Pop's. Ella especially loves to be able to pick strawberries so we all decided to go out and enjoy the beautiful afternoon. It is nice for the girls to get a taste of nature! I wish we had a little more land in a country setting, but I guess we will just have to settle for visits to the country for now! Getting Matt out of the city would be mission impossible.

Addie's little feet were running in overdrive the whole time we were out in the orchard & strawberry patch. She also decided the patch looked like a sandbox and decided to plop down and play awhile. Needless to say she had a bath before leaving for home.

Ella's favorite part was picking the strawberries of course. She didn't want to pick raspberries because they had "stickies" on them. She was running back and forth in the patch all excited trying to find the "biggest strawberry she'd ever seen."
