PICKING STRAWBERRIES (6.14.08)

We went to pick some strawberries this morning at a local strawberry farm. It was soooo much fun, Isaiah and I had never done it before. So, off we went into the strawberry field with our bucket. We found SOOOOOO many good strawberries. It was really, really fun! Brian took a little video of us picking them while he was holding Levi. On a seperate note, Levi is all over the place crawling, seriously - this is too much! And my floors are really dirty too as evidence shown on his shirt all the time! HA! Anywho - picking strawberries was a blast and we came home, washed and cut them, of course taste testing a few. They are good of course! Can't wait for some strawberry shortcake - yummy!!!

Also, a life lesson was learned today as well. Every strawberry is different, some are more red than others, some are fatter than others, and so on. And sometimes you have to look a little harder to find the really good ones. Both of these things can be true with friends. Friends in life come in all shapes and sizes and colors. And sometimes you have to look a little harder under the leaf to find the good ones, but it doesn't mean they aren't there! And how fun when you find a big, red, yummy strawberry - it is so sweet! This may not be applicable to any of you but it was for Brian and I today so I thought I would share!

Enjoy some photos taken as well below.
