Cherry Pickn'
We went up to Greenbluff on Tuesday July 29th and picked cherries. While I was working at Financial Forum one of our Clients handed out their business card and map. I wanted to go on Saturday but we didn't make it. Jimmy and Kirby were in 7th heaven. They ate as much as they picked. Jayden, Sophia and I were not so lucky. It was windy and the kids were fussy, I stayed as long as I could. Jayden and I ended up picking some apricots and she loved them. They were crunchy just like apples and she loves apples. We started heading back to the car and the keys weren't in my pocket. Yikes. I have no recollection of what I did with them after I had made my millionth trip back to the car for jackets, water.... So we started backtracking, and I started praying. I left Jayden in the stroller and carried Sophia. Jimmy and Kirby were ahead of me and they stopped and said a prayer. We were walking down an isle between the trees the boys were ahead of me. I started to cut across to the outside isle and Jimmy implied that I didn't walk there, I replied that I had to cut across somewhere, as I said that I was looking down and I saw something black in the grass. So, Jimmy decided that he would cut across too. I pointed down in front of Jimmy and asked if those were the keys and he bent down and picked them up and said "yup!" Yeah!! Then we started heading back and we stopped and said a thank you prayer. I never stopped praying the whole time we were looking. It turned out to be a wonderful experience.
