Williamsburg Trip with Ammy and Papa

We stayed in Williamsburg thanks to Ammy and Papa getting us two condos for a week!  The grounds had mini golf so we started by playing a round, Alex even played along for a bit.  The next day we took everyone to Busch Gardens to have fun and Alex rode on his first roller coaster!  Everyone had a great time riding the rides!  We walked Colonial Williamsburg and one very happy boy got to see some sheep and Brooke was excited to get ‘locked up’.  Ammy and Papa watched the kiddos so we could have a date night at one of our favorite restaurants, The Fat Canary, and we walked Colonial Williamsburg at dusk with a full moon.  We enjoyed some family snuggle time and the kiddos enjoyed some topless running time before spending the day in Yorktown. It was fun to be near the river and seeing the different replicas.  On a rainy day the kiddos enjoying playing with one of Brooke’s birthday presents from Ammy and Papa.  During a break in the storm we took them on a walk to see the turtles at the pond and ended up playing a short game of horseshoes.  Everyone enjoyed playdoh after dinner that night.  It was a fun week in Williamsburg!

 

Mother’s Day Tea

Today Brooke’s preschool hosted a Mother’s Day Tea.  I joined Brooke in her classroom for tea and treats with a specially made placemat and necklace awaiting me.  It was a fun time with my sweet girl!

Brooke’s Artwork

One of Brooke’s favorite things to do is color or draw.  She drew me this picture of ‘her family’ while I worked out and she was with the gym childcare.  My favorite thing beside the obvious representation of Daddy, Mommy, Brooke, and Alex, is that Alex is raising his left hand (our little southpaw) and the rest of us our right.  Love!

Fresh Strawberry Scone Cakes

Today we were at it again picking fresh strawberries and I decided to make some scones and fresh whipped cream for Strawberry Scone Cakes.

Spring Babies

We’ve been hosting some new spring babies in our backyard oasis.  Four baby Robins and one baby bunny.
