Anybody for Some Strawberry Pickin'?

Another bright idea of Jenny's - let's take the kids strawberry picking! Actually we had a blast and this was Ryan's first time picking strawberries as well! Wow - what an adventure with 5 small children!
G was quite excited to jump in there and pick everything he saw. We had to teach him which rows to pick on and a little discernment about when to pick and when to leave them!

Now there's a team - R and H!

H did a good job of spotting and squealing at EVERY strawberry he saw. Yes, he is directing E as to which one to pick!
Ready to weigh and take our strawberries home!


This is a great little farm where they have things for the kids to look at after picking berries. Here are the oldest 4 in a tractor! Later we got to see a tractor bailing hay! The boys were in heaven!
This was probably the funniest part of the farm! The animals. I had told the kids there were goats, but apparentely they had never seen a goat up close and personal! E and H were petrified. H wanted to run away at any kind of movement. The goats were VERY loud and apparently hungry! There were also rabbits in a cage and roosters all around! H was frightened at those as well!
