Today, despite the rain, we met some friends at a local farm that grows apples, raspberries, blueberries and pumpkins. It was so fun to tromp around in the rain with the pretty scenery all around us and pick our own raspberries. Unfortunately we have had a lot of rain recently so a lot of the berries were moldy, but we found some good ones! They had red raspberries and some yellow Kiwi Golds, which were quite yummy. The blueberries were very picked over and the ones left weren't very ripe so we didn't get any. Sawyer was disappointed about that! But we did buy some apples and he ate one completely down to the core on the way home. Yum! We can't wait to go back and take Kate and Daddy with us and enjoy their corn maze, apple cider and pick some pumpkins! Sawyer is excited to show Kate our raspberries when she gets home but I'm wondering if I shouldn't let her know we do fun things while she's gone for a while...it might be hard to hear after your second day!
I only took pictures with my phone because I didn't want to have to try bring my camera in the rain
After the farm I took Sawyer out to lunch for a little date. He is just such a funny boy and it is so fun to have him all alone. I don't know if this makes sense, but I feel like I SEE him more. At lunch he was jabbering on and on about something and I was just sitting there and looking at him and feeling like I hadn't SEEN him like that before. I don't know if it is because he would always jabber to Kate instead of me or if he kind of just let Kate be the jabberer and he was in the background or if having 2 I just was splitting my eyeball time and I actually just saw him less. Whatever it was, it is fun to see him now.
After we got home we sat down on the floor together and played some board games, just counting down the time until we go pick up Kate. Will we always be so anxious to go get her from school that we are counting down the minutes or is that just because its new? At any rate, 1 hour left to go....
