Strawberry Picking

Savannah and Vince enjoying the soft serve ice cream

Last Monday the kids and I went to Elliott Farms to pick some strawberries and enjoy homemade strawberry ice cream. Savannah went with her Pre-K class on April 15th and her picks were gone in no-time flat. In fact, the 3 lbs that we picked on Monday are already gone! I guess we'll be heading back on Monday for another round of picking after school.

Savannah's last day of school is May 22. So far, she has perfect attendance. We have been blessed with healthy kids. Jeff was one of those kids who missed one day in all his 12 years in school! Today is "Thinking Cap Day" where the kids can pay $1 to wear a hat. It's to celebrate the end of the CRCT tests that the students took over the past couple of weeks. The funds raised go to Relay For Life and Cancer Research. Next week is the Book Fair, and the Sonny Carter Field Day is on May 7th. School will be over before we know it!

Savannah is excited to attend Trinity Woods Summer Day Camp this year. It's an all outdoor camp where they build a fort, get to walk in the creek, play in a mud pit, and all sorts of outdoor games. She will take swim lessons from Julie Bragg the first two weeks of June and the kids and I are planning a trip to the Gulf to meet a friend from college and her kids.
