Holland's Farm
Heidi and I took the kids to Holland's Farm to pick strawberries. The kids had a blast eating, running up and down the isles, playing under the shed on an old trailer, and oh yeah picking a few strawberries!

Limericks by Gram
My Gram taught us all sorts of limericks, some were more appropriate than others. Here are a few of our favorites (as I remember them)...
Two Irishmen two Irishmen were diggin in a ditch
One called the other one a dirty son of a
Peter Murphy Peter Murphy had a little dog
A very fine dog was he
He gave it to his neighbor to keep her company
She fed it she fed it and taught it how to jump
It jumped right up her petticoat and bit her in the
Asters azaleas 25 cents a bunch and
If you don't like my story you can kiss my rump!
There was a little dog and his name was Bing
He'll be eight years old if he lives 'till spring
His head bulges out and his rear caves in
It's a darn good dog for the shape he's in!
Little old lady time for tea
Here's a kiss, two, or three
Your just like the little old lady
I hold dear to me...
Little bit of business here
little bit of business there
I'll bet you've been window shopping all around the square.
There was a little dog and his name was Jack
He pooped all over the railroad track
The train came by
The poop flew high
and hit the conductor square in the eye!

Easter Celebration
We spent the day with Mimi, Pop Pop , Andy, Jenny, and Matt in Greensboro. The kids had a blast, as always! They got tons of attention from everyone, dyed eggs AGAIN, found Easter baskets, played outside, explored Pop Pop's workshop and boat, found MORE eggs, and even saw some baby ducks, chicks, and bunnies.

Egg-citing!!!
We dyed eggs today for the first time. We stuck to the basics but this kids could not get enough. They were absolutely amazed when they pulled their eggs out of each cup and they had changed color. Peter about had a heart attack when he walked in the door!
