Lots of Sunshine, A Strawberry Fest, Some Art and Other Fun

 The gorgeous weather has been hanging around here in Stuart and made for one heck of an end to the work week and a INCREDIBLE weekend.  We got in several visits to the park... 



...and lots of time poolside too, in boots and slippers nonetheless, it's a rare treat... 


We got a little crafty too, first at a play date...  
  


...which sparked more requests for a painting project at home which resulted in a pinterest-inspired activity that got 2 thumbs up from the boys...


We also hit up the family place at the library where the boys toy of chose was this tunnel where they pretended they were bears in a cave...


...they are SO creative.  Love it!

We also discovered a few more bathrooms around town...


...it's an exciting life, I tell ya!  Haha

Oh, and Mickey and I even got in a date night on Wednesday night with a little outing to see Gaelic Storm at the Lyric theater...


...it was fabulous as usual.  So was the beer and wings afterwards at B. Merry!  We don't get to go out alone enough.  It was fun!


Saturday found us at D and D farms for the Strawberry fest.  We got in touch with our country sides and checked out the farm animals...




...and the tractors too... 


The boys had their first see-saw ride... 


...another perk of being a twin is that you have a perfectly balanced partner on the seesaw.  Good times!

These expert pickers also managed to pick a few strawberries...



They did great!  And they are already almost all gone.  YUM!  

We couldn't get enough of the great weather, so after we wrapped things up at the farm, we headed down to Jupiter to visit the Busch Wildlife Sanctuary.  I did a bad job of taking pictures there but the tortoises, the deer and the swamp were some of our favorites...


...we also liked the black bear and the panther.  Cool stuff!

After that exciting day, you'd think nap time would have come easily but I had to put the sleep machine to use again after we had no luck with naps in the beds...


...I'd say we were successful.  

We kicked off Sunday with some yoga before running a couple of errands and heading to the beach to soak up some more of the gorgeous weather.... 


...we ended our day with some more time poolside which included lots of play time followed by a yummy rib dinner.  It was the perfect end to the weekend!


...oh and by the way, those yellow trucks that keep popping up in all the pictures are a prize for them BOTH going poop on the potty.  I know, I know...too much information, but it's a big part of our reality these days.  We're making progress here folks...day number 3 of no accidents...fingers crossed this streak continues.  :-)
