Strawberry Picking






Alex and I headed out for our annual outing to Sweetberry Farms in Marble Falls to pick our strawberries. This year we have had lots of rain which made for some yummy strawberries but for some very muddy fields. We attempted to dig for potatoes too but gave up after we discovered how much work it was. Alex loves the animals out there. When we were eating lunch by the goats we actually had a goat jump up onto out table and try to eat with us. Needless to say the goats are very friendly and somehow have escaped their cage and some actually roam free begging for any food they can get. Last year when we went Alex was quite timid around the goats but this year he fed them and pet them. He loved seeing the horses and donkeys too. We ended the day with 12 pounds of strawberries and a strawberry popsicle.
