This year we decided to take the girls to pick our own strawberries at the Chesterfield Berry Farm. We had SO much fun, especially Camri. These were all the cool things that were there to do:
Farmer Camri:
Here are the girls and Mommy, on our way out to the field:
It was a seriously beautiful day. But, it did get a little hot after an hour or so in the sun.
Capri loved picking the strawberries, but mostly she loved eating them. I had to take several away from her because it grossed me out. They really needed to be washed, but I saw almost everyone eating them right out there in the field. Nasty! Still, several made it in her mouth and she was a happy camper when they did.
Camri: If there was an award for "Best Berry Picking", she would've won it for sure. She made sure to only pick the red, ripe berries.
Camri picked all these berries by her sweet self:
And she was darn proud too...
Capri took a little break in the shade to pick up puff balls:
And a family shot:
Next we fed the animals:
I love this scrunchy little face:
Then, off for a wagon ride:
Which both girls loved:
And when we got home (13.5 lbs of strawberries later...) we dipped strawberries in chocolate:
We also had strawberry milkshakes, strawberry pancakes with strawberry syrup, strawberries with sugar, strawberry sprite, etc... It was a delicious three days or so worth of strawberries before they went bad. I was actually surprised by how many we ate!
