Picking Strawberries

We went to pick Strawberries at the King's Orchard in Plantersville. Everyone had fun in the end. Alex did a lot of crying during the actual strawberry picking and then perked up once he learned the wonders of the wagon. Jasmine was so excited to go, and had a great time while we were there. She was, by far, the best strawberry picker. She was fast and discerning.


This was the final strawberry count. As I said, Jasmine was the fastest strawberry picker. :) She picked more than the rest of us combined!


This is a classic picture of how the morning went. The rest of us enjoyed strawberry picking, while Alex cried. Christophe, nice guy that he is, spent most of his time with Alex trying to help him enjoy his time. He did stop crying long enough to pick some strawberries.

This was Alex once he discovered the wagon. He cried and cried when he was put into the wagon, but once it started to move he was enamored. He is proudly showing off his strawberry.

Jasmine is posing in the flowers. She also did some dancing. She was certainly in her element.
