Saturday was basically a perfect day. The weather was fabulous, sunny and 75 all day and we got to spend lots of time together as a family, enjoying our beautiful surroundings. After breakfast, we drove about 30 minutes to Great Country Farms for strawberry picking and lots more. Above, Aubrey had a blast on the giant jumping pillow called the "Pumpkin Bounce".

Loving the rope swing...
...but his favorite was climbing the tire mountain, he stayed up there forever!
Aubrey couldn't get enough of the rope swing either.

Strawberry picking -- we all had a great time! This weekend was the peak for picking and there were plenty of ripe, juicy strawberries everywhere we looked.

At first, Will was all about helping pick the berries, but once he tasted one he decided that eating them was even better.
Yummy!
We also got to see farm animals, Robert & I tasted some strawberry wine from Bluemont Vineyard, we had lunch, and got the kids some homemade ice cream. Then we all came home for much needed naps. That evening Robert and the kids ate dinner, played outside and watched a movie while I went to dinner with my good friend, Emiley. Today I baked some pound cake and we had that with our fresh strawberries and whipped cream for dessert. Looking forward to going back for more fruit later this summer!
