Everyone that knows us, knows that we are always on the move....so when Daddy has to work on Saturday, we take the chance to find a new place to visit. This weekend it was the Strawberry Patch. It's actually called the King's orchard and its located about 30 minutes from our house near Plantersville. Its a really quaint little orchard that also grows Blackberries and Blueberries but right now Strawberries are at their peak of ripeness! I will admit I was a tad concerned about the weather b/c we had the worst storm of 2009 on Friday - hail, winds, pouring rain..probably 2 inches of rain in 30 minutes. So I packed up the kids on Saturday morning and brought a second set of clothes and shoes b/c I was prepared for it to be a muddy nightmare.
However, the strawberries are actually planted in very sandy dirt so there was no mud at all. Aw shux...we didn't even get to change clothes!!!
Here are some pictures...and yes, the winds were 20-25mph so we went from wearing shorts last Saturday to our winter hats this Saturday (got to love the Texas weather!!)
