U-pick strawberries

 A long time ago now, it feels, we went to a u-pick farm. 
 The kids did a great job picking berries (and not eating them-'cause I warned them that was stealing!) considering they'd never done this before.  They're going to ask me every year now. :p
Daniel thought every berry was red, so he needed a bit of guidance.  And he really wanted to eat them, and he only managed to sink his desperate teeth into one, for the rest he exercised remarkable self control.   I was amazed!
 With all the help we had four buckets full in half an hour.
 Nathan thought we should bring our sand-toy buckets, and he eagerly washed the sand out first.

Jennifer didn't offer any help, but she was eagerly looking forward to pigging out on them once we paid for them. 
Then she excelled.
