Strawberry Picking

This is the fifth year I have taken the kids strawberry picking. In my head I always envision it to be such a lovely endeavor. I picture the kids grabbing their buckets and leisurely walking up and down the rows while I snap adorable pictures. The good news is that after five years Asher is actually well behaved and likes to go to the patch. The bad news is that I still have two other kids who don't share my vision for this trip. 

 Piper picked a total of three strawberries. She spent the rest of her time asking to go potty or telling me it was time to go home.
 Ashman hung out with Jada and Bennett. The three of them picked quite a few strawberries.
 Dex crawled halfway up a row and decided he needed a snack break. He ate a few crackers, half a dozen strawberries and called it a day.
These guys are so cute together. Asher still insists he is going to marry Jada. Every once in a while I ask him why. His latest reply was "So we can hide from Bennett". I guess there are worse reasons to marry someone.
