Fundraising and Berry Pickin'

From this... to THIS in under 2 hours!This morning our family participated in the March of Dimes Walk America for premature infants. This organization is obviously close to our hearts. From a combined weight of barely 8 lbs to a combined weight of 80+ pounds in 3 years--that is something to celebrate! Those tiny, delicate peanuts are a distant memory...replaced by strong, healthy and vibrant children.
After the walk, we took our painted faces to a nearby strawberry patch. The weather was gorgeous, the strawberries delicious, the homemade ice cream fantastic, the mess INCREDIBLE, and the memories...priceless.After naps, we strolled down the street for our neighbor's birthday party...Whew! What a fun, treat-filled, exhausting day! One week from today is the trio's 3rd birthday!!! We are busy planning our farm-themed party. For the past several days K has asked, "Mommy, is today my birf-day?" Almost baby... YAHOO!

Looks like your family had a fun day together. Your children are adorable! Planning a birthday for one is a task, but for 3...WOW! Can't wait to see pictures of your party!

I see a lot of Shout in your future. Not the yelling kind - the laundry kind! Go ahead and get the Oxy Clean to go with it. Looks like you might need it after all.

Can't believe they are almost three. Time sure flies when you're watching fun.
