Strawberry time!

My favorite time of year is berry season! There is the cutest U-Pick farm down the road and we love going there with the kids. Here are some pictures from our strawberry adventure!
Who? Me? I didn't eat anything...

Gearing up for a day's work in the feild.

Aren't they beautifuL?
Headed back from the patch!
Tatum stopped by the growing corn and asked if we were going to pick that next. After my detassling days in Indiana, I am going to say NO!
My cute little migrant workers.


Enjoying an ice cream together afterwards.
Hugs for Mom!
Ice Cream for Carson!
The best ice cream in the WORLD!







Sweets for my sweetie.




The finished product: 3 batches of strawberry jam, one batch of freezer jam, 25 bags of strawberries to last us the year! It was a great day.

I'm so jealous you can pick strawberries in July. I never made it to pick any this year, it rained every time we tried to plan it. I guess there' always next year.
