Strawberry Picking

The kids and I picked strawberries last week. There is a farm about an hour from our house that grows strawberries and they are the best. This was the first year that Caden and Allyson picked berries.



















I love this one - Caden taking a break to sample the berries.



















The kids were super excited to ride the "strawberry express" (a gator cart) to the picking field.
They did great for about 1/2 hour of picking, and then they were ready to be done. It was hot and humid (of course), so when we were finished picking, we got fresh strawberry popsicles. (they were delicious!)
We picked 2 full flats. Some to freeze, some to give away, and lots to eat!
