A Strawberry Day

Today was the day we picked the first 2 strawberries from our garden. Yes, the could have been a bit more red, that is true. But, hey! They were mostly red! And that makes today a strawberry day! Rhiannon and I were so excited!










And here she is all dressed up for violin lessons. I don't know why but she really likes to dress up for her violin lessons. It probably has something to do with the fuss her teachers make over the way she is dressed. But today really has to beat them all. Dressed so fancily Rhiannon just knew she needed some gloves. So she used her gardening gloves. She even wore them to violin lessons (had to take them off for the lesson, of course). Her teacher was duly impressed.

Later, wearing her bathing suit in the +32 degree weather, she used those same gloves to pick that strawberry. She went out to the garden with basket over arm and gloves on to inspect them. You should have heard her excitement when she found that one. That wasn't the very first strawberry, though. I ate that this morning....
