Strawberry Picking







Near our house is a place called Eckert's Farm and we LOVE to go there and pick things. We have been to pick pumpkins and this weekend we went to pick strawberries. While you are picking it is all you can eat. C took advantage of this the most since she just loves strawberries. We picked a huge bushel and they were so yummy. When we got home we realized there was no way we could eat all those strawberries before they went bad so we gave some to neighbors. After we picked strawberries we went and had some frozen custard (an illinois speciality) We all enjoyed that as well. You can see C loved it too--It's all over her face. The weather is finally getting warm. It was in the 80's today. Where has it been for so long!!!

Ohhh, how fun!!! I love the cute hair! And how smart of you to dress her in red!

You should have kept the extra ones and frozen them - I use them in smoothies for Noah J!

Josh is OBSESSED with frozen custard!!! We get it once in a while and they make these Dr. Pepper shakes that Josh craves like mad!
