summer tour - week one (wagner berry farm)

Week One was officially over.  We spent our week in TN with cousins.  SIL had a special outing planned to Wagner Berry Farm where our main focus would be strawberries and rasperries.  Unfortunately, the raspberry patch wasn't open just yet but, we still had time to seek out some tasty strawberries.

Photos for Instagram were a must.

 

And who could resist jumping the rows?

 

 

Light saber moments... 

 





 

The girls shared special time together.

 

 

And then it was time to head home.

 

 



cousins

Today, we picked up a few groceries,

got haircuts,

hit the pool,

started a new read,

and patiently waited for cousins

while seated in the warm grass relishing some girl talk.

They've played trains, Wii, wrestled.

Made bracelets and necklaces,

designed their own fashions, 

painted nails. 

The animals are fed, chickens are in.

We've started the Prince of Persia,

devoured mountains of popcorn,

taken an intermission

to eat a second dinner of

doctored sloppy tacos,

Spaghetti-O's,

watermelon and ice cream.

We've made beds,

brushed teeth,

snuggled down into cool sheets,

and nestled under warm blankets.

Tonight,

we are enjoying cousins.

Life is good.
