Grandmaman, I finally found my camera. I took Boogs and his cousin, Little J, to Sweet Berry Farm to pick strawberries during Spring Break. Unfortunately, the berries were pretty picked over by the time we went. The boys still had fun, they just did not have very many strawberries to bring home.
They added a new thing this year, it was like a bouncy house in the middle of the field. Boogs and Little J LOVED it!

The bouncing photos are great
ReplyDeleteThanks! Because of the "overpicking" there weren't a lot of people there. The boys got the entire bouncy area to themselves.
DeleteYum I love strawberries. We used to love going to the strawberry fields to pick them. Looks like a lot of fun was had!
ReplyDeleteI hope Boogs continues to enjoy going. His cousin said this is probably the last year he wants to come with us.
DeleteThat looks like an awesome bouncy castle - and for strawberry field picked over they did well
ReplyDeleteThey certainly tried to find good berries. Most of the ones they got were okay.
DeleteSounds like a great day. I am looking forward to summer and fruit picking here. We have had such a cold spring that I'm sure Summer is suddenly going to pounce on me unaware! My boys would love that science experiment too. Thank you for sharing your fun over on Country Kids.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for hosting and stopping by to comment.
DeleteAaww, look how much he's grown! I managed an action shot this week for #countrykids too :)
ReplyDeleteI will go check out your action shot. I really wish he would slow down on growing up.
DeleteOh I do love berry picking, what a lot of fun! x
ReplyDeleteThanks.
DeleteSounds fab and a great tradition to have in place! We LOVE strawberries here. I like the sound of homemade strawberry popsicles too. Nice to some fun sunny pics x
ReplyDeleteSweet Berry Farm is the place we go for strawberry picking in the spring and pumpkin picking in the fall. It is a tradition that we look forward to every year.
DeleteI love strawberry picking. Your photos are brilliant, that bouncy house looks amazing. I can imagine my girls reaction to that - I'd never get them home! The whole thing looks like a fantastic day out and I'm so jealous of all that sunshine
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind comment.
DeleteI love the bouncing pictures - fantastic! I used to love fruit picking when I was little, haven't done it with the boys yet... One to add to the list :) #CountryKids
ReplyDeleteMy son loves to go berry picking. Hope you find a place to go with your boys.
DeleteWhat a fabulous day for strawberry picking! As I sit here on my sofa huddled in a fleece and slippers with my heating on 22, and the wind whistling outside in 2 degrees, the concept of strawberry picking in shorts and t-shirts seems a distant fantasy. Looks like a glorious day, love the bouncing pillow photographs.
ReplyDeleteNipping over from the Country Kids linky
Sorry Spring has not reached you yet. It is lovely for us now, but the coming months of 38+ can get VERY long.
DeleteThat looks like so much fun. I wish we could go strawberry picking in the UK at the moment but it is still really cold
ReplyDeleteOur weather turned a bit this week. We are back in jackets and rain boots.
DeleteWhat a lovely little tradition, I have been meaning to take our little man to the nearest PYO orchard, hopefully this spring we will get round to it. Great post and I love the flashback pictures. Just popping over from the linky

Thanks Laura. We really do enjoy this farm. It is only about an hour drive from home.
