Berry picking!

The girls and I went berry picking at Lakeview Farms last week with Rachel and Caleb. We were looking for a nearby place to go, and this one was only about half an hour away.


Unfortunately the strawberries were a little water logged because of all the rain we've gotten lately. But we were still able to enjoy a few from the patch here and there. Look at that berry juice running down the kids' faces!


The raspberries were at their peak. Caleb was in heaven eating raspberries right from the bushes!


Laine was a great berry picker too, and she even helped fill up a tray or two. I think all of us ate more berries on the spot than we actually brought home in the car. We'll definitely return next year, hopefully in time to get some good strawberries too.

There is a huge raspberry bush by the deck at Jimmy's parents' house (or maybe it's a bunch of bushes) and we LOVE picking and eating them!

We went there last year before we moved and had a lot of fun, too!
