Strawberry Picking
On Saturday we headed across the ferry to pick strawberries at College Run Farms. Calvin seemed to have fun, both on the ferry and picking!
Too bright for the little guy though..
Awesome face.
Calvin’s (and Luke’s) favorite thing :)
Calvin doesn’t actually like strawberries…he wouldn’t even eat the homemade ice cream! He must take after me, I’m one of the few people that doesn’t actually like strawberry flavored things (except the strawberries themselves, goes for most fruits actually)..
These were the kinds strawberries that Calvin would put in the basket, so we had to do a little quality control.
“Let’s go Mom!”
“Fine, I’ll go by myself!”
I used a lot of the strawberries to make a Strawberry Shortcake last night, which was super yummy!
Next month we’ll be blueberry picking!

Rachey Baby Visits!
Way back in April, the week we got back from Disney, our buddy Rachel came up for a visit! We had a busy couple of days hanging out and having fun :)
We had a girls’ night at the Melting Pot, which was most of our first times (except for Sara, the pro!). And it was super delicious and fun!
Then we wanted to play Catan of course…problem was it was after 10pm on a Tuesday and most everywhere was closed, except for Target! So we set up in the (closed) Starbucks area of the store…we felt pretty awesome playing a nerd game at Target :)
And surprise surprise, Sara won! Haha, she is just awesome at that game!
Calvin loved playing with Abby again…especially copying everything she did. She actually got him playing on the rocking bike, so thanks Abby!
Rachel got to meet Evie for the first time! And Evie loved meeting her :)
Then Calvin had to show his love for Abby….many times..
It was nice having the girls back together again! We’ll be glad to live close to the Erwins when we get back to TX!

Random iPhone Pics
We played ultimate frisbee with some friends last week. Calvin wanted to join in on the fun!
And poor baby got a bobo on his forehead! I was the bad mom that didn’t keep the curling iron enough out of reach! Please don’t call CPS!! It’s already healing up just fine :) And he didn’t even know it happened.
(Btw, our new favorite thing is going to CFA on Kid’s Eat Free night, which is where we are here)
At least he gets to sport a cool band aid, right?…

Busch Gardens
It’s nice having a season pass to BG b/c we can just go out for a couple of hours and do the smaller things. Especially now that all of Williamsburg is going every weekend!
Calvin and I rode a dragon ride together and thought we’d take the standard “friends” pic :)

Trix’s Visit
Trix came to hang out with us at the beginning of May. Because this turned out to be her last trip before we move, we of course had to go to Colonial Williamsburg :)
As usual, we went out to eat a few times, and one of the nights we went to Buffalo Wild Wings and Calvin got this cool crown..(pic was taken from the iPhone inside at night, so it’s a little blurry, sorry!)
Unfortunately Calvin got a little sick while she was here, so here’s the pobresito…
We got this basketball goal at a Young Life Yard Sale a couple of weeks ago for $10 and Calvin LOVES it!
Then we had a photoshoot of Trix and Calvin before we dropped her off at the airport.
Thanks for coming and hanging out with us Trix! We love you!
