Mommy and Me Monday | Mother’s Day (The 64th Edition)
It’s time again for Mommy and Me Monday. Pop out from behind that camera and capture yourself in action with your kids. Check out the inaugural Mommy and Me Monday for more information.
Happy Mother’s Day! The day for us. Mr. Serious told the girls that today is all about mommy, because all the other days are about the kids. So true.
I was bought yummy french toast with strawberries (my favorite) in bed this morning and a sweet little handmade card.
We headed to church. Came home and had lunch and the best part of the day? Two girls took naps! Yay! That’s a pretty good gift to mommy.
We kept missing our chances to go strawberry picking, so I decided today was the day. Of course, I’m quite certain it was the hottest day of the year. My camera strap was soaked at the end of the day from sweat.
The pickings were pretty slim as most of the good strawberries were gone, but we still got some good ones. They were just small.
And, I kindly told requested that the girls take a picture with me. This was the best one. You should see the faces in the other ones. They were actually scowls.
#2 was obsessed with seeing the “strawberry on your knee” as she thought it was hilarious that I had kneeled on an overripe strawberry. I hope it wasn’t because she thought it hurt me. That wouldn’t be very nice!
After our picking, we came home, and Mr. Serious helped me get the berries ready for strawberry pie. Yes, I cooked on Mother’s Day. But, if you had homemade strawberry pie, you would probably do it, too! (This isn’t the pie I made today, but previously. This time I used a graham cracker crust. It’s a million times better!)
I absolutely love the pictures, your girls are so pretty like their momma! 🙂
Thank you son much!
We both had strawberries on the brain! haha. Love your site and I happy to be here. Thanks for hosting and hope you had a wonderful Mothers Day!
Yes, indeed! Strawberries are delicious!
the strawberry juice on your knew really threw me! I thought you were really hurt! lol your pie looks amazing! 🙂 Happy Mother’s Day!!!
I think that’s why N thought it was so interesting.
Happy Mother’s Day to you, too.
What a fun Mother’s Day outing and that pie sounds SO good!! Happy Mother’s Day to you my friend! Glad you had a good one.
And, it would be the week that I start counting calories, too! Luckily, I had enough room at the end of the day.
Ah home made pie sounds enticing, looking at the photo, I am drooling lol.
Let me know if you make it..it sure is tasty.
Homemade pie is the best kind 🙂 The little one looks like she’s still scowling but she looks adorable:) Taking photos with little kids are really tricky!
happy mother’s day! 🙂 hope we can pick some fresh strawberries someday too!
Strawberry picking sounds like sooo much fun! Happy Mother’s Day!

You should…you should! I can just see them covered in strawberry juice, too!
I’ve been loving strawberries lately. I think we’ll be picking some in June. So much fun.

It’s practically still winter up here in Minnesota…in fact, we DID have snow just last week…ish!
Enjoy the warm air and sunshine!
Happy Mother’s Day!
Yikes! one of the many reasons I sure love living down here…remind me in August when we are sweating our behinds off.
how fun! would love to that kind of thing….:) pretty girls as always….I thought you got hurt!
belated happy mother’s day to you!
I hope you had a Happy Mother’s Day, too.
Strawberry picking sounds like the perfect thing to do with the kids!
Oh you’ll have to tell me where you went Hubby and I would love this.
Didi you guys head over there? Did I mention they are closed on Saturdays because they are at the Farmer’s Market.
No yet, I wanted to go today but its chilly out and about to rain it looks like 🙁 Maybe they will still have some next weekend. If not I’ll hit up the farmers market
YUM! Now i want strawberries! My kids always refuse to look and smile – Evan’s always making silly faces.
Ooh I will have to remember to try your recipe the next time we buy a bunch of strawberries!
Ah the picture scowl…I know it well.
Let me know if you try it…one of my favs!
Even though their faces don’t show it, I know they had a great time strawberry picking.
I love going berry picking and citrus picking. The pie looks amazing, even without the graham cracker crust.
Sounds like you had a fabulous Mother’s Day, I’m glad for you.
We’ve never done citrus! Sounds like fun..and the girls love oranges.
Hope you had a fabulous Mother’s Day, too.
They look more alike each week!
Really, I think they are starting to look less alike…funny!
happy happy mothers day!!
