Strawberry Fields Forever

We went strawberry picking with some friends on Friday morning. Good thing we went early, otherwise I'm pretty sure we would have melted.
There really is nothing better than eating a warm, freshly picked strawberry. Ummmm.
Little strawberry shortcake over here sure had a good time picking and eating (Notice the strawberry juice on her shirt? She was covered by the time we were through.) every single strawberry in sight.
...Well, that is until she realized that she couldn't step over the strawberry bushes by herself which made it hard for her to be right next to me at all times. But who can resist this little cupcake. I mean seriously.

Thanks for the pictures Emily and Ginny (and thanks for inviting us!)!

*And good news loyal blog readers. Our broken camera woes are almost at an end. Our new camera should be here in time for our 4th of July festivities! And you know that means lots of pictures ahead.*

  4. What a doll! Berry-picking children hold an inexplicably soft spot in my heart. "Blueberries for Sal" (Robert McCloskey)and "Jamberry" (Bruce Degen) are must-have books for berry-picking kiddies!

  5. Too cute. I love strawberry picking too. Just made lots of jam last weekend. An easy secret my mom taught me for removing strawberry (or any berry) stains - put the clothing in the sink and pour boiling water through it a few times until the stain fades. Works every time - and so little effort - no scrubbing! :)
