Spring Break in Texas!


We had our first Spring Break in Texas and it was exciting, memorable, and much anticipated.  Grandma Sue came to see us for an entire week.  There was much to see and do...but first, the kids had to show Grandma all they'd built in their Minecraft worlds on xBox.  She was very impressed.


Anyway, to get out and enjoy the spring weather, we went strawberry picking at the Sweet Berry Farm in Marble Falls, TX.  It's a pick-it-yourself farm.  Well, that previous day it had rained buckets and the ground still was sloggy.  And it was chilly.  But that didn't stop the kids from finding enjoyment.

 

We got a few strawberries while some of the other kids wandered over to check out the local livestock.  Joe was just giddy when the horses nibbled bits of grass from his hands.


And the bouncy ...tarp?  I'm not sure what to call it...was a great hit.  Joe didn't stay on long because the kids kept bouncing him too much.  But he was more than ecstatic to find a corner of the tramp to jump on all by himself.


We had a great time with Grandma Sue and can't wait to do it again next year!
