Strawberry Picking
Last weekend we went to Froberg farms to pick strawberries. I had a couple of baptisms to attend before leaving so Ryan, Asher and Susan ate lunch at the church and waited for me to get done. Of course Asher decided to have a little mistep and fall face first into the cement so you'll notice a bruise forming in a lot of the pictures. Once we got to the farm Asher figured out what to do really fast although he wasn't too happy about waiting until after we paid to eat the strawberries. We let him have a few before and that just wasn't enough! We came home with two boxes of strawberries to make freezer jam. I had never made jam before so I picked up the easiest pectin I could find - it didn't require boiling and only took a 1/3 of the sugar the others called for. It turned out really yummy and Ryan is hooked on it! I can't wait to go picking for the next fruits that come out!

that's usually what my kids look like (the bruises) he's still adorable. i've always wanted to pick strawberries, too fun!
It was really fun! Thanks for taking me along.
You should of called me, we would have come and hung out with you. It is only 20-30 minutes from our house. Poor Asher's head. He looked like McKade (he couldn't wait to pay either). He would grab them from the ground and stick them in mouth as fast as he could. Fun times!
