Cherry Picking

May 17, 2020 No Comments

It’s been 2 months of Shelter-in-Place and the kids hadn’t left Alameda this entire time. We went on a special outing to Brentwood for some cherry picking. The farm we went to took appointments and when we arrived, it was nice and empty. We had rows and rows to ourselves and SO MANY CHERRIES to pick!

The kids had a great time and they were excited to bring home all the cherries for snacking.

This guy couldn’t wait and had his fair share of samples while were were picking.

We brought home 9 pounds of cherries and we were done by 9:30 when it started to rain.

We also stopped at 99 Ranch on the way home and waited in the car while Dada shopped.We had some cherries and also walked to the donut shop next door to pick up some treats.

Peanut fell asleep with the donut in his hand on our drive home.

Headquarters

The kids have been using the garage as their headquarters lately. Every morning, Mama moves the minivan out so they have a place to hang out in between scooter/bike/skateboard rides.

The hair trimming kit was on backorder so Plan B was to borrow a kit from Auntie Teresa. Mama watched a couple YouTube videos and gave Peanut a haircut for the first time.The main goal was to trim the front and free his ears again.

Quarantine Hair

Peanut is overdue for a haircut and we had to be creative with how to keep the hair out of his eyes.

The hair trimming set is on it’s way from Amazon. Just a few more days…

More s’mores

The kids really wanted to make s’mores again. They were so excited that they sat together as the fire was getting started.

This isn’t a very good photo but I can assure you the marshmallows were yummy.

Free Kitchen

May 9, 2020 No Comments

During our bike ride, we passed by this IKEA kitchen that was left on the sidewalk with a sign that said “FREE”. It’s a kitchen that we had seen so many times but never bought. The kids (and Mama) wanted it so once we got back to the house, Mama drove the van over and picked it up. It was in perfect condition with all the utensils and pretend food inside. After it was disinfected, we brought it into the house and the kids started playing right away.
