The dutchkid starts school this week. On the one hand I’m really ready, and on the other hand I’m sorry to see summer go. I’m not sorry to see an end to the heat. I have been unbelievably whiny this year about how hot its been without air conditioning.
One of the things left on my list was to visit the u-pick farm before school started up. They just opened for the season, which seems oddly late to me, but here things just don’t grow as nicely as they do in the Midwest, that’s for sure.
However, the views can’t be beat.
We missed out last year and didn’t get there at all (it’s a little bit of a drive from us). So it’s been a couple of years since we’ve been. It’s amazing when I look back at pictures how grown up she is. She still looked so much like a toddler back then, and now? She’s such a big kid these days.
Now summer feels a little more complete. I guess I’m ready to let her be a kindergartener. Maybe.
What a fun day! I love fresh picked raspberries. My favorite. Kiddos grow up so fast. Too fast.
Soon I will have a new kindergartener in my house, too – a kindergartener and a first grader. When did that happen??
I would imagine that the lack of AC would make me dislike summer more too, but I will still take summer over winter. The Dutch kid is growing so fast! she changes with every picture that I see. Quite a young lady
