Strawberries

IIt has kind of become a yearly tradition to go and pick strawberries in the middle of June. There is a patch in Iowa and another one in beaver creek that we have tried out, and we absolutely love the strawberries! The picking is fun because I go with a group of women and we just get to chat while we work. Those of us with kids get a babysitter, and this year we even went out for ice cream after all our hard work. :) A big thanks to my Grandms VW who watched Caleb for me while I picked! The hard part comes when we get back home. The next few days after picking I spend most of my time washing, cutting, and freezing strawberries. It is kind of a pain, but it is so worth it to have delicious strawberries all year long! 

       Hard at work...or hardly working. :)
