Today Cade and I got to go on a field trip to Mrs. Heather's Strawberry Patch in Albany, LA.
We "got" to ride the school bus ALL the way there (1 hour)!! I can honestly tell you that was THE bumpiest ride of my life!!!! I almost reached for a barf bag a couple of times, but eventually got acclimated to the bumps and we were on our way!! Cade was so proud that I rode the bus with him so it was worth EVERY bit of queasiness/discomfort!!
We made silly faces and played games on the phone to stay busy...
Then we got there and received instruction for the days picking!!
(This is Cade's "girlfriend", Stella)
We got our buckets and we were off to go pick our strawberries!!!
There were about 10 fields to choose from so I let Cade decide. He chose the one closest since he was ready to get the picking done so he could go check out the playground!
He did a great job picking out the red ones...our motto was the "redder the better"!
He was the cutest little picker out there!!
Once we got our container full it was off to the playground!!
His favorite game was this water game where you pump the water out and you stick a little rubber duck in the gutter and flush it to the other side. HE LOVED THIS GAME!!! He tried to go play on other things but kept coming back to this game. I don't know what was so fascinating but I just sat and enjoyed watching him!!
I eventually pulled him away so he could try out this cool little "trampoline" jump contraption they had.
He wasn't a big fan though because there were some bigger kids that made it really hard for him to stabilize himself.
Then I tried to get him to go down the slide...but he wouldn't do it b/c it was too high. So back down the stairs he came!!
But we found the tube on the ground and he had fun in there for a while!!
Then he got to "milk" the cows!! It was just water, but it was pretty cool b/c it worked just like a real utter!!
All in all we had such a fun day!!
This was him passed out on the way home!!! You can see it got pretty hot on the ride back. But he didn't mind it one bit and sacked out in my lap!!
Thankful I get to go on field trips with them!!
Until next time!!
