Strawberry Picking

This year we were able to go strawberry picking.  It seems like the last couple of years, we missed strawberry picking while on our spring trip to visit family.  This year it was especially exciting because the Hooties were picking strawberries to make a pie for Lin-Lin's birthday.  Josiah was very cautious...taking the time to pick out just the right strawberries.  Sophie was on a mission and completed it fast...very fast!  Kyrie was getting help from Daddy and enjoyed picking the berries every so delicately. Tobias just grabbed the berries and picked them stem and all, then got distracted be the tractors plowing the fields.  Here are a few pictures from our time at the strawberry patch.

I honestly thought he would have more berries on his clothes than he did
