Strawberries!

Kevin took a day off work in early May so we could have a special family day.  This is something I really appreciate and love about Kevin.  Since Jake's been born, he's made a commitment to take a couple days off each school year so he can have special time with us.  I love getting the chance to all be together even when it's not the summer or the weekend.  Like last Spring, we headed to Marble Falls for some strawberry and blackberry picking at Sweetberry Farms.  Last year, we did not have good luck with weather.  It was cold and rainy, this year was a slight improvement.  It was just muddy, not rainy and much warmer.  Here's the pics from our day...

Sometimes strawberry picking is messy work
 They also have goats there.  We didn't hang out with the goats too long, but we had to take a picture of the cool goat bridge.  Check it out...

Now on to blackberries

Jake had good picking skills

Sweetberry also sells homemade ice cream.  We tried it for the first time and it was DELICIOUS!
