May Summer Fun

So our summer vacation has officially started. Its almost June, but we had a few days of vacation in May and we did our best to make the most of the end of the month. 

After our last day of school party on Tuesday- we went to the library on Wednesday. We signed the kids up for the summer reading program

The theme is "Readers of the Universe". Each of the kids set reading goals of 20 hours, except Benson- his goal is only 1 hour. 

Thursday we decided to go to Sam's and get some summer snacks and grab lunch.
Sadly, Daddy couldn't come with us, but the kids always enjoy having lunch at Sam's Club.

Then on Friday morning, we drove over to Reagan Family Farm and picked strawberries. 

Benson definitely ate every single berry he picked. 

Tucker was my best berry picker. 

I love all the berry pickin' kids. 

We got a ton of berries and we made a strawberry pie for Daddy. 

Daddy leaves tonight for two weeks for annual training and so as our going away gift, we made a delicious strawberry pie for him.
It was really yummy, but it didn't make us feel any better about Daddy leaving.
So tomorrow is June 1st and that marks beginning of Dad's annual training for the Guard. 

We will survive but its such a long time. Stay tuned to see what we do to keep ourselves from going crazy!
Also- Yay! Summer vacation has officially started!
