My weekend was packed full of events. My husband was out on business so I really wanted to make sure I was nice and busy while he was gone. Somehow my weekend was even more eventful than I thought it would be. Friday we went to a strawberry farm with Noah’s class. I was so excited to also pick up some fresh kale and broccoli. That farm was so sweet. From there I bid my husband farewell and headed to my moms to
