Strawberry Stampede

We went strawberry picking with our friends Sarah and Sophia this morning. The weather was hot but the might wind did help to cool us down (and make us a bit dusty). Lexi was so excited to go that she didn't even want books last night before bed. She just wanted to hurry to sleep so she could get up and go pick strawberries. Nicolas was excited too... except he doesn't eat strawberries. That is... until today. Now he loves them again! Yeah!


Here are my two little ones picking their strawberries. Some are riper then others of course. They had to have me see each and every one after they were picked.

Here are our three little cutey-pies with red strawberry juice covering their little cheeks (and their bottoms). Sophia (2), Nicolas (4) and Lexi (2) loved every juicy minute of it. They had fun and can't wait to come back and pick some more. Of course, I need to figure out all the ways we can use up this big box of berries first. Strawberry pancakes, muffins, ice cream .....
