The boys helped me pick raspberries at Koch farms one hot morning. The picking was better than it usually is for raspberries, but I don't remember how many pounds we got.
Alan ran a half marathon at Cook Park a few days after the 4th. Mason liked watching the geese while we waited for Alan to finish. Of course Mason tripped and landed in a pile of goose poop. Yuck! Alan ran well and almost beat his PR.
After the race, we did some geocaching at the park. We are new to geocaching and aren't very good. We found the first one we hunted, but never found the second.
We found another geocache in Sherwood while out on a family bike ride another day.
I offered to pay Spencer $1/bucket of berries if he would get up early and help me pick. He was a great helper and we wound up with 37 lbs of Marion berries and blue berries. I've never been able to get all of my berries in so few trips - Spencer was a big help! And, he was very happy with the $2.80 he earned.
Mason was in bad need of a haircut, but I just didn't feel like dealing with the screaming and tears that always happen when I cut his hair. So, we visited Cookie Cutter Haircuts for the first time. Mason was nervous, but loved the airplane he got to sit in and hardly made a peep while they cut his hair. It helped immensely that the lady was really fast - we were in and out in about 15 minutes. We probably won't go there every time, but the lack of trauma was definitely worth it this time!
Dani and her kids came to visit for about a week like they always do, but sadly, we left town right after they came so the kids only got to play together for a couple of hours. These crazy Lego boys had fun while it lasted though!
Our first harvest of 2018 - a yellow zucchini!
We went to the splash pad here in town for FHE one night. It wasn't crowded and we had so much fun! Not pictured is Alan and Spencer ganging up on me and soaking me. Haha!
