Jag, Griff and I went strawberry picking at Double R Cattle Services yesterday afternoon with our friend Jenn and her adorable son. I was kind of hoping for some Kodak moments involving Griff romping through the fields while gorging himself on strawberries, but he decided not to take a nap in the morning, and about halfway though the 15-minute drive to the farm, he passed out in the car seat.

Luckily, this made Jag’s assigned task of minding the little ones pretty easy, because Braed was asleep, too.

Jenn and I picked and picked and picked.

While we toiled away in the fields, poor Jag had to contend with this.

And, even worse, this!

Griff woke up to the sight of strawberries strewn at his feet.

He finally roused himself enough to eat a few, but he was not in a great mood after missing his morning nap and having a fairly short afternoon snooze in the stroller.

I ended up with about 6.5lbs of berries, most of which went into the freezer for Griff. I definitely need to go back for more before the season’s over!
