IT'S ALL ABOUT THE SHOES

"Cutie's" shoes
See how tiny his feet were?

 

O'Man's shoes
I love his expression. It's like he's saying, "I can't help myself. I see a pair of shoes, and I gotta wear 'em. So sue me." 

Momma's shoes
Striking a pose. T-shirt by Carters, jeans by Wrangler, shoes by Nike.

Daddy's shoes
Could he be thinking, "Alright, already. Enough with the pictures, Mom. Gimme dat camera!"

"Beauty's" shoes
Look at his little fists. Is he thinking, "I saw 'em first. Now back away from these shoes!"
He's pretty dangerous in a diaper.

Little man just likes wearing shoes. He really likes BIG shoes as you can see from this collection of snapshots. It's hilarious to watch him "clomp-clomp-clomping" around the house.

I LOVE GERANIUMS

These are my two hot pink geraniums. One of my favorite flowering plants. O'Man planted them in this lovely green planter. He fertilizes them once a week with Miracle Grow, and "Cutie" waters them once a day.
They are simply gorgeous, and they are surviving!

[Did you notice that I am no where in the above? Indeed, that is WHY they are thriving. It's nice to know our limits, eh?]

Couldn't have asked for a prettier cake ... and so tasty!

WE CAME FOR THE STRAWBERRIES, Y'ALL

Today I went strawberry picking with friends. What a "sweet and juicy" time we enjoyed!



Such bounty! Aren't they beautiful? So sweet, too.

Rows as far as the eye could see just waiting for hands to pluck those juicy, red berries.

Filling their buckets.

Me and little man tasting a berry . . . or two.

I have more pictures, and definitely want to share our experience in more detail. It's been a long day, though, so I'll do my best to put the info and pics under my REVIEWS page before this weekend is over. Please check back y'all! Bye for now.  :)

YE OLE "MOM AND POP"
