Strawberry Picking!

This time of year usually means lots of time at the strawberry patch. Unfortunately, our favorite spot was sold last year and we've not gone all season :( A friend invited us to go to another local strawberry patch last Friday and Anna begged until I relented. It was a hot afternoon and over 35 minute drive so I wasn't jumping up and down at the idea. But once we got there, the breeze was nice and the berries plentiful. We had a good time picking berries, snacking on a few and enjoying the outside. Sarah is not a farm girl - she screeched each time she saw a bug! She still managed to fill part of her basket in spite of the bugs :) Anna loves being outside and she and Jacob did a great job helping me fill 2 flats worth of berries. We wish this strawberry farm is closer but at least we were able to keep up our yummy spring ritual.
