Two Peas in a Pod: May 2012

Saturday we took the boys to Patterson Farm in Mt. Ulla, NC (just outside of Mooresville) for a LKN MoMs strawberry picking event! We had a blast. There was so much to do...farm animals, wagon rides, playground, picnic, a market, and of course strawberry picking! We loaded the boys up along with their wagon Santa brought them and a picnic. The boys were a little too small to pick strawberries so I filled up the basket while Josh, Jaxson, and Foster ate the pickings! Foster wasn't too impressed with strawberries however, Jaxson couldn't get enough.

After we filled the basket we headed over to the picnic tables and enjoyed our snack with the other multiples families. We let the boys play in the giant sandbox after lunch and they loved it...until they stuck their sandy hands in their mouths. Finally, we admired the cute farm animals...bunnies, piglets, peacocks, sheep, goats, and ducklings!

What an amazing day! We can't wait to go back.

So, what did we do with all the strawberries you ask? I dusted off my canning supplies and canned 4 jars of strawberry jam and 3 jars of strawberry honey butter! Not quite 150 lbs. of apples but who's counting!
