Our trip to the berry farm turned out to be and ideal summer day. It was a week day so we pretty much had the whole place to ourselves. First we checked out the farm animals and the kids jumped on a moon bounce. Then David tossed the kids in the hay bales. Then we found a giant bucket of corn to play in. This was a blast. The kids loved us chasing them and we took turns getting buried. Under a shady tree they had a big sand pit with buckets and shovels. David and I lounged on the benches nearby. Then it was the anticipated tractor ride to the strawberry fields. On the way to the fields we described the perfect type of strawberries to pick and told them to stay clear of the white ones. To Preston's satisfaction all of the ones he found were perfect. He would say, "Daddy this one is perrrrfect and quickly shoved it in his mouth". That kid ate his fare share of strawberries. It was hard work for this pregnant mama to scoot up and down the rows. Claire was my helper, but they both ended up with David because I was too picky for them in my strawberry selection. The day was heavenly.
