Berry Picking!

Every year, we go strawberry picking. My most favorite picture of me while pregnant actually happens to be FROM the strawberry patch!


(I was about 7 months pregnant with Patrick Finn here)

But this year, a certain little miss got in the way. Unfortunately, I spent way too many days consecutively commuting to CHOP that it left no time for strawberry picking! I was sad. I had hoped we'd catch the tail end of it.



The berry farm told us there were still berries to be picked...but when we got there, all we found in the area where the berries were near were.....



PEAS! That was OK...but we still wanted berries...so instead, we opted for black raspberries!



We were a little weary as these grow on thorned plants, but Patrick managed just fine. I think he managed to eat more than we collected!!


They won't keep for long, but in the meantime, we can all enjoy some fresh berries in the Conroy house!
