Bee-Bee's!

Sapphie is crazy about strawberries. Our neighbor Becky has been bring us a quart everytime she goes to Pennsylvania, since April. Sapphie goes nuts when they get here. She starts yelling "bee-bee's" and then stuffs them in her face, green leaves and all. And, for the next 2 days, that's all she wants to eat. She comes in the kitchen yelling "bee-bee's", reaching up to the counter. It's so funny. Kevin and I couldn't wait to take her strawberry picking so she could see where these yummy berries come from. We did take her last year, but she was so little. I remember it was such a hot day and I didn't really think she knew what was going on. I was so hot. We lasted maybe 30 minutes. Well this Saturday, we had our chance to take her again. The forecast was 90 degrees, full sun. We decided to go to the Charlotte Berry Farm first thing in the morning, to beat the heat and the crowds.
What an excellent idea! We will make it a tradition. The weather was perfect. Low 80's, sunny, with a nice breeze. And, since we were there at 8am, we were practically the only ones there! It was a blast.

She went nuts. She stuffed her face.

Crouching down...what's in there?

Bee-bee's!

When she got tired, daddy put her in the back pack.

It was so fun. We can't wait to take her blueberry picking!!
