Strawberry picking and Easter (Our LORD Has risen!)

Some of the moms and our kids got together to go strawberry picking. It was fun and what we thought was going to be a very soggy trip ended up by being super sunny. There is a local farm that has “pick your own” strawberries for sale for $1 a pound. It is really nice place to get them. The strawberry beds are on large mounds that are covered by a tarp so you don’t have to lean down as far and get as dirty. By the way if you are looking for a great thigh work out I have one for you pick strawberries with a baby on you!

Landon helped put the strawberries in the bucket




We worked in a couple of fundraiser into Easter weekend so we could go home and visit with family. It made the weekend go by faster but at least we got time to spend with our families.
Josh had to work Friday so we got in late. We spent a little time with Josh’s family before everyone past out. Saturday morning we spend with my parents. We went out to eat at Harry T’s (one of my fav places) and then went shopping. Landon had a lot of fun showing off all his new skills to Grandpa and Grandpa. At lunch we found out Landon’s new favorite food, cucumbers! He loves sucking out all the soft insides. I think he eat 5-6 huge slices. The best part about Harry’s is that it is on the water. It was a beautiful day out so we sat outside and watched the boats go by. Afterward they were having a Easter weekend celebration on the boardwalk so Landon checked out the crayfish and made a pinwheel. After lunch and a short walk on the boardwalk we went shopping.

He also loves drinking water espesically from a cup!


Landon loved watching the birds and boat go by with Grandma




Shopping was followed by a trip up to Crestview for a Pampered Chef Thailand Mission Trip fundraiser. Our friends, the Johnson’s hosted the show. Both of their children are going with us to Thailand in July. The show was a lot of fun. We made a yummy dessert and enjoyed time with friends.
Sunday was Easter. What a wonderful celebration!
He is not here. He has been raised, just as he said. Come and see the place where he was lying. Matt. 28:6
Our family celebrated by enjoying a wonderful play put on by the high school students at Niceville Christian Church. They always do a great job, that church is blessed to have so many great actors and actresses! After the play, our Pastor Dan put together a wonderful sermon.







Landon LOVED watching the play!




For lunch, the Williams had my parents and the Daviss over. We also made a Pampered Chef dessert for everyone so that they could try out the tools. Landon had lots of time to play with all of his grandparents and aunts and uncle. We missed Uncle Adam and Jon though.
It was a really busy weekend but I am glad we were able to go home and spend time with family.
