summer is here and pretty sure the best way to kick off summer is to go strawberry picking! we found a farm we went to last year and had so much fun, we knew we'd go back and do it again this year.
this time we met up with good friends, picked berries, had a picnic and went on a tractor ride. it was a hot morning, hence we are all shiny in our pictures.
my cute berry picker
this cutie enjoyed herself, and pretty sure brody and some of his little friends decided to share some strawberries with sydney too. she didn't seem to mind one bit.
brody with his friend rex, giving a thumbs up because strawberry picking is super cool. and hanging out by the farmers big tractor with sophie.
yummy picked berries and the strawberry fields.
we ate a few of the berries and they were really yummy, and the rest got made into a few batches of homemade strawberry freezer jam, i know totally domestic of me, right? pictures of jam and recipe to come. erin, if you read this it would have been way more fun to make jam with you, just sayin!
we've been picking strawberries now for quite a few years, but this post from just 2 years ago, wow sure gets to me. 1. because i miss ohio and 2. i can't believe how little brody looks! nothing better than having such great memories to look back on. and nothing better than making lots more!

Jen, of course I read this! :) Thanks for the little message; I was so, SO jealous reading your blog. We are in the midst of packing our house to move to WV, so no freezer jam for us this year. :( Miss you lots; I've definitely been thinking of you while cleaning berries to put in my pies! Send my love to your family! e
