Pick Your Own....

 Strawberries!
We ventured out a few weeks ago in the hot blazing sun to pick some strawberries.
 With the sun beating down on him, this little guy marched on and thru the rows of red deliciousness.
I had to keep him from trying to walk over the rows and squish the berries!

Searching for the big strawberries.  There weren't very many big ones, but they were all very sweet! We didn't pick a whole lot, just enough to enjoy the taste of summer.

Matthew was holding on to his little bucket and did not want to turn it over to get weighed so we could pay for it.  He finally loosened his grip, but he did not take his eyes off those berries until they were put in a bag and handed back to him.  Then he proceeded to drag the bag on the gravel road as we walked to the car! 

I love making memories with my little guy!

Looks like you guys had fun picking strawberries! I love Matthew's outfit!

Great minds think alike I guess because we both posted our strawberry picking blog posts on the same day! :-)

I love that he will wear a hat! :)

We love to pick strawberries, too, but this year's crop wasn't great in May. I've heard they are better now, but we haven't been yet!

You are definitely creating wonderful memories. Strawberry picking goes into full gear here this week-end. May have to get out and do some picking.

Mathew looks tres chic in his little outfit. Thanks for bringing a smile to my day with your post. Hugs and blessings, C. (HHL)

I loved picking strawberries as a kid!

I guess Matthew was getting an early start on making some strawberry jam ;-)
