Strawberry picking!

I am so excited summer is finally here! I'm not a cold weather kind of girl and love the heat! So to start off summer we headed to Windridge Farm for some strawberry picking. We picked a cool over cast day and it was perfect! The kids have so much fun picking different fruit and are excited to eat it after.
Here is a few pictures of the strawberry picking.....






So we ended up with quit a bit of yummy strawberries!


My happy strawberry pickers and their stash!

They were also able to play a little while I paid for the strawberries.

After we got done picking strawberries we headed over to MeMaw's house to make some strawberry jam. With our strawberries costing just under $10, we were able to make 15 jars of strawberry jam and 3 bags of strawberries to freeze up. Unfortunately I don't have any pictures of us canning the strawberry jam, but I can guarantee that I have enough strawberry jam to eat for the rest of the year!
So here is to the start of summer!!!
