Did you sing that? Ahhh, you must be a regular reader then.
Last Saturday we went strawberry picking. Here's a slideshow:

You might notice that Moira is the least 'girly' looking then normal. She was MAD at me that I wouldn't let her wear a dress, but you can't pick strawberries in a dress...we'll maybe you can, but that's just because you are very talented. Or you live on Little House On the Prairie. ("Pa Ingalls is that you?") Anyway, I did notice something...people were letting their kids eat the strawberries. Is that normal? I let the kids each try one, and kind of felt bad about that, but other people were just letting their kids sit and chow down on them. Is that an expected normal thing to do? I just found that weird.

Gideon brought an art project home the other day. It looks kind of like a Pillsbury Dough Boy holding 3 little dough boys (one in it's arms, one on it's back and one on it's head). Gideon said the one in it's arms was him, the one on the head is Spencer and the one on the back was Bastian. I asked who the 'dough boy' was and he said "It's you Mama" *sniff sniff* My boy made me a statue just because he wanted to. How sweet is that? Here are a couple pictures of it:

***Last Day of School (or, "CRAP! Now what do we do?")***
Today was the last day of school. So, we went out for our traditional Last day Of School Lunch. There is a restaurant on 104 about 15 minutes from us, Grestoffski's Tavern or something like that. It's like a big 50's diner...and you know how much I love diners! We sat up at the counter, the kids loved it. The place is nice, good food and friendly staff. If you are ever out this way check them out. (As an aside for Dad, one of today's specials was fried bologna sandwich. I'm sure you haven't eaten one of those in what 15 years or more? But it made me think of you).
Oh, and for gifts for the boys teachers I sent them in with little packages of Oreo truffles for their teachers (http://bakerella.blogspot.com/2008/01/grocery-item-turns-gourmet.html- this blog is AWESOME!)
Only 68 days left until school starts...not that I'm counting or anything.
Just so you know, we are going out of town from this Saturday till July 9th, so no blogs for a while (awww, baby, don't cry. You know I love you) There should be approximately 7 billion pictures to show you when we get back.
I guess I better go. Lincoln is running around butt naked. But, you know, my day just isn't complete without someone running across the room nude....

i made a big deal out of not letting my kids eat the strawberries and the check out girl said they expect the kids to eat some. i still don't let them because i'm trying to teach the kids that we pay for stuff first. she actually told the kids to go over and eat one, but fortunately they didn't hear her. i thought that was crazy. i love your blog by the way!
