Strawberry fields forever.

...
Sweet Berry Farm is one of our family favorites for picking spring strawberries...

In fact, we have been visiting the farm for quite some time (almost 5 years!!) and a visit is always an adventure.

Strawberries are always consistently awesome. It is the people that keep changing...



This year, we snuck in a "Lucy May Farm Day" as an early celebration of her Easter Sunday birthday the next day. I think that whenever you share a birthday with a major holiday... you should get an extra day to celebrate JUST you. So we did. 

The animals were on board.


Friday night the farm must have enjoyed a good deal of rain because Saturday proved to be fairly empty and SUPER muddy...


Kids stuck in mud is just about the funniest thing on the planet. Especially if one of those kids includes a certain Molly May-- who often has big opinions about MUD. I don't know that I have laughed that hard in a long time. Not to mention, I finally got a look at what it is to be about 3 inches taller. Have to say... I was a fan. 

My favorite moment though for sure was our visit with the horses. 

A horse took to sniffing Gabe's strawberries which he nervously thought was delightful...


That is until a certain bossy older sister pointed out a sign with RULES.


The fact that the horse did not forget about the strawberries and the guilty look of "are the farmers going to be mad at me?!" resulted in one of our most favorite Gabriel May faces.


Farming adventures... never gets old for these City Slickers.
