My friend Debra invited our family to tour Berry Patch Farm up in Brighten with their home school group today. I have SO much proofing that needs to be finished that I almost declined. But then I remembered the feeling I had last year at the end of summer. I was so disappointed that I had forgot my priorities and as the cold set in I was longing to have a warm sunny day to take my kids to the pool or the berry patch. This year I vowed that I needed a healthy balance between my work and my family. I vowed to work very hard, as always but also to play very hard and enjoy every minute I could of the ever too short, Colorado summer with my kids. So, I said yes, we would come and I’m so glad I did.
Maiza turns 8 next week!
Julian enjoyed his strawberries right on the spot.
The fruit of our labor:
Okay, so Julian was way more labor than the actual picking of strawberries but my kids had a blast and my prayer is that they will remember mommy spending quality with them way more than they remember me in front of a laptop.
For those of you anxiously waiting for your images, tomorrow is my BIG WORK DAY and I’ll be catching up on a ton of proofing so thanks for hanging in there one more day!
Happy Thursday!
