Berry Picking!



Our family loves to go berry picking. Every summer we find a farm or patch of berries where the owners let us do the picking ourselves. We have been going with friends for years. Today I went with our friends and just my two oldest to pick raspberries. Yummm!

I love to hear the kids start to salivate as we talk about raspberry pie and raspberry ice cream and raspberry jam. They are delicious! Are you getting hungry?

The best part of today was realizing how all those years of berry picking are finally paying off. My girls are great berry pickers. We came home with 14 pounds in just over an hour.

Now it's time to teach them to make jam!
