Strawberry Pickin'

Yesterday we took a family field trip to a local Strawberry Farm. It's funny how you can live in the same city for so long (13+ years) and still discover new places. Southern Belle Farms is about 10 minutes from our house and open to the public to pick strawberries. We thought this would be fun for our fruit-loving toddler!We picked a gallon of strawberries, which didn't seem like much at first, but it turned out to be a lot! They taste really good- so fresh and yummy!

We walked around the farm and saw goats, cows, chickens, and bunnies.
Aiden holding the "how-we" bucket of strawberries. He had a blast!

Ty enjoyed the cloudy weather and nice breeze- enough to sleep the whole time. :-)

We picked for about an hour- it took that long to fill up our bucket. We will definitely enjoy our strawberries.
and we will definitely be back next year. great cheap fun for kids!

While we try to teach our children all about life, Our children teach us what life is all about.
