Berry Picking!

My friend, Beth, invited us to join her family and another of her friends at a local berry patch.  There were three moms chasing after 8 kids, ages 7 weeks to five years.  We had a great time visiting a bit, working to keep the kids in our assigned rows, and trying to fill our boxes. 

The whole crew!


Xander at far more than he picked, but he loved it!

Digging through the leaves for the best berries!

After eating half of the berries in our row, he just wanted to hang out with Momma.  



Still working!



Don't they look yummy!
(Thanks to Beth, for this photo...never got one of our box, but  I promise, our boxes looked the same!)
Ready to go home.

My messy, messy boy!
Once we got home, we made a strawberry pie, a double batch of freezer jam, and some strawberry muffins. We also enjoyed some strawberry shortcake and eating them fresh!
