Strawberries

Yesterday we picked strawberries at a local farm with some of our friends.
Buddy boy rode along in the wagon and picked leaves and ate them while we picked berries.


Sweet Pea did a great job picking strawberries.
Mostly she just wanted to hold the basket herself.


Here she is with her friend Courage.
They are so proud of themselves!



It took a while to fill up the basket because I lost my picking partner along the way.
They left all of the Moms to pick the strawberries by ourselves while they ran up and down the rows of strawberry plants.
I left with a huge basket of berries and two tired children!


Not sure what we'll do with all of these strawberries! We'll eat some, freeze some for smoothies, and I might attempt making some strawberry preserves.
