Farm Party and Squirrels!

We had awesome weather this past weekend (in the 80's - Woo hoo!) so it was the perfect weekend to visit the Bertoni Family Farm and go to a Flying Squirrels game.  My cousin, Kathryn, owns an organic farm in the mountains outside of Charlottesville and she hosted a Farm Party with a bunch of our high school friends.  The kids loved running around the farm with all the kids and seeing all the animals and vegetables.  It is really beautiful where they live and it was so nice to catch up with some of my old friends.  Madelyn and Ellie's favorite part of the farm was collecting eggs from the chicken coop.  They thought it was so fun to bring the eggs back to the house.  Ellie kept wanting to go back to see the chickens again and again.

We have been wanting to go to a Flying Squirrels game all summer and with the weather, Sunday was the perfect night. The girls had a blast at the game and loved dancing to all the music and watching Nutzy the Squirrel from afar.  They were also excited to get their picture taken with Nutzy during the 4th inning.  It was a really good family outing for us and we hope to see another game before the season ends!


Very excited about holding the eggs! 

Relaxing at the farm!

Girls just love Nutzy!

Ellie was all smiles during the game!


It was very easy to get the girls to smile for pictures because they really did have a good time!

This a true Ellie smile!
