Strawberry Pickin'

One of my favorite things to do with the girls is strawberry pickin'. There are so many great farms in the area that allow you to buy a bucket and fill it with those sweet berries that we take full advantage. This year was our best pickin' yet. The weather was great... not to hot with lots of sunshine, and as an added bonus both girls were totally into it. In years past Lily was more of a curious on looker that would run through the patch like Godzilla and create her own strawberry stomping that was a little more resembling of the infamous "I Love Lucy" grape stomping episode rather than a utopian "Sound of Music" the hills are alive scene that I had romantically concocted in my brain. But, this year we all had buckets and plenty of red, ripe strawberries to taste test our harvest. After, the girls played checkers outdoors and drank orange Crush. Which in my book is definition of a perfect afternoon! Enjoy the pics...
