Strawberry Patch 2006
R's 6th year. He was an A #1 picker this year. E's 4th year. He was an A #1 eater this year. We picked the perfect day this time. The berries were not too under-ripe or too over-ripe. 88 degrees F and breezy. We had the whole patch to ourselves aside from an old couple leaving just as we showed up.

Oh, that all looks sooo yummy! And the boys look quite pleased. We're headed strawberry picking here tomorrow...I can't wait.

Ah, what lovely photos - especially that first one :-)
The number of places you can go and pick your own strawberries around here (Cambridge, UK) is getting smaller and smaller, which is a real shame - the kids and I really enjoy the picking (and the eating!).

We did that one year. Looks like you got a lot of good strawberries. I love E's red cheeks!

Your boys look so sweet! And what a harvest! It would be strawberry shortcake for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, if that were my family!

Love the 'pink' on the boys cheeks. Those berries make me hungry!

where do you pick? I didn't know there was a berry patch anywhere close. Actually, maybe there isn't unless you count 5 hours drive as close!
