Thanks to my darling little girl (and my dashing husband), I get to celebrate Mothers' Day (hard to believe it is my second one!) - so what did we do?
Well, first we woke up at the break of dawn (thanks to Chase's new tooth) - no problem, we had to be up early anyway as we were being picked up at 8:30 a.m. for a China-tastic berry picking excursion with 9 other families.
En route to berry picking, we passed a truck filled with seaweed. One word - YUM.
We finally arrived at the strawberry fields (greenhouse)...
Inside the greenhouse...
Chase found a little spot all her own and started playing in the dirt...
She would look up occasionally to ensure we were still there...
And then it was back to the dirt...
She did, however, manage to find a couple (pre-selected) berries...
And then the paparazzi found Chase...
From there, we had to cool off a little. Luckily, there was a little driving range nearby. Good thing Chase already has her own set of small, brightly colored plastic clubs of her own.
She knew just what to do; yeah, she pretty much schooled her peers.
Our little pro...
The competition...
Chase found time between shots to show off her squatting skills...
And inspect the golf balls...
And then there was the group photo - complete with a custom banner...
And then it was off to lunch (it was at a Chinese hillside village turned restaurant)...
And after lunch, we found out it was actually a birthday party (note the ritz crackers on top of the cake)...
One word: YUM
So what did we learn? One can never be too overdressed for strawberry picking in China.
