Strawberry Picking

We visited Spencer Farm in Noblesville to pick strawberries recently. I wanted to do this last year, but it was pretty difficult to make happen with a newborn baby in tow. But this year I decided to make a trip there. Noah enjoyed picking (and eating....and eating....and eating) the freshly picked strawberries. We were amazed at how small the strawberries are. The ones in the grocery store all hyped up on who knows what are much larger. However, these fresh strawberries tasted much better!!

We invited our friends from church Michelle and Eloise to meet us there to pick berries and have a little picnic. Eloise is the same age as Isaac. It was fun to catch up with Michelle.

We picked just over 5 pounds of strawberries. I would have liked to pick even more, but Noah and Isaac had had quite enough of strawberry picking. Isaac was crying in the backpack and Noah was running up and down the field. Noah was also moving the little marking stakes they place to show people where to start picking.... Oh well!
