Strawberry Fields

Today we went to pick strawberries with Jonny, Cassie, Hailey and Emmett. When we left our houses the sky was mostly clear and there was sunshine to keep us warm. However, when we got to Fromberg Farm, it was mostly cloudy and very little sun shining through the clouds. I had a jacket we were able to put around Emmett for a while since he had fallen asleep on the way to the farm. He was pretty cute peeking out of the hoodie! When we goi to the strawberry fields, he was ready to pick strawberries and eat some dirt.

Hailey was getting cold so we wrapped the jacket around her after she had picked her fair share of strawberries. She taught Mimi how to look for the big ones and how to look all around them so I would know if they were ready to pick. When she was looking through the strawberry bushes I often heard "Holy Cow" when she came across an especially large one. It was so fun to hear her say that!

So much fun and Poppi was a great strawberry picker! He filled one whole bucket and then finished filling mine. I became busy holding Hailey. I think it made her feel warmer. And look at Cassie...isn't she darling in this picture?

Such a cute strawberry picker...she sure knows how to pose! And Jonny posed for his picture as well. I guess Hailey did not get her posing stances from her Dad.....

Oh, no! Mommy said do not eat the dirt. No more fun for Emmett.

Such a sad face and a heartbreaking cry to go along with it. Mommy falls for it everytime.

Overall, we had such a beautiful morning and fun day together. We are already ready to go again.

The strawberries were excellent!
