Cherry Picking

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.

We had another family game night after dinner and played “SORRY!” This is how we spend our crazy Friday nights now. 🙂
