The sky has been looking pretty fabulous each morning and we are loving this warmer weather. Last year at this time we were trudging through a foot of snow just to catch the bus. The kids always laugh at me because some times in the middle of breakfast or packing lunches I will pause and open the front door to "ooh" and "ahh" at the sunrise. It really helps me start the day off on the right foot!
Some mornings my kids wake up looking older! As I watched Camilla head out the door in her carefully picked outfit and new uggs I just had to snap a picture. I still can't believe she is already in fifth grade!
The rest of our day was spent roaming around the acreage, hanging out with the chickens and picking tomatoes in the greenhouse.
Some of the tomatoes are getting quite large! And boy are they tasty when they're vine ripe. After the littles go to bed at night Mr. Stannix and I pop some bread in the toaster and make toasted tomato sandwiches. So good!
We only picked what's ripe or very close to being ripe, and got a pretty good haul! There is still lots and lots of tomatoes.
Little man is still a nursing champ and I can't see any reason to give up these special moments together quite yet.
