Pickin' Strawberries...

Another busy day in the life of a one year old! Joel and mom went on a fun adventure this morning...we headed to the fruit farm down the road and picked some strawberries! Joel had a great time running up and down the field. He was very excited to discover that there were actually strawberries under all the leaves.

I had to keep a close eye on him because he liked tasting the strawberries...whether they were red OR green! Somehow, quite a few made it into our bucket with little bites taken out of them! He was otherwise an excellent little helper. He liked picking them and putting them into the bucket for mom.

He was too cute on the way home...he fell asleep in his carseat with strawberry juice all over his mouth and shirt!

We're headed to dinner tonight with Grandpa DeBoer to celebrate his birthday! Happy Birthday, Dad! (You may be getting some strawberry jam courtesy of Joel!)
