Strawberry Picking


I took the munchkins to Froberg's Farm in Alvin last Friday to pick strawberries. Having never been there before, I didn't really know what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised by the whole experience! Caleb and Bekah had a great time picking strawberries, and I got to show them how a strawberry grows from plant to flower to berry. It was really neat! They picked 5 pounds of strawberries, and as of today (Wednesday) they are all gone! So, we get to go back again soon....and Devin said he wasn't interested in going before, but after hearing about it afterwards (and the neighbor boys going on Saturday, so it's not too uncool) he wants to join us on the next trip. We also got several other kinds of fruit from the farmer's market there, and Caleb discovered that he REALLY likes plums! I love it when my kids get to try new things and discover something they didn't think they would like. Here are a few pictures from our day:
