Strawberries! Strawberries!

We had a great time picking strawberries last Friday. With three good pickers I ended up with $14 worth of strawberries. So on Friday and Saturday, I cut lots and lots of strawberries. I made a strawberry pie and I have two more bags of frozen strawberries for more pies. Yum! The day was wonderful also, because both boys passed their EOGS. That was a relief!



All my strawberry/flower pickers. I guess it is just impossible for everyone to look at me and smile at the same time. I think I need a photography class.



Megan decided to just pick daisies and not strawberries. This was just fine. She had an interesting week. Mommy decided to give Megan a hair trim. She had such a thin bottom layer, it almost looked like a duck tail. When it was wet it looked like a rat tail. I attempted a cute little bob, Megan turned and oops. Not a pretty haircut. So I went to Welcome and found the first hairdresser I could to fix my huge mistake. It is much better now, but my haircutting days are over for good. I am just glad I got the haircutting bug out of my system while she was 2 and not older. Will received one of my lovely haircuts once when he was in preschool. It thought I would save money when I found a haircutting video at the Goodwill. I watched and even took notes, but his hair did not turn out well either. So scissors and hair are off limits for this mom.




Jack was really into this strawberry picking. I think many of the strawberries got a good squeeze as they made it into the bucket. He did do a good job and picked tons.





Our neighbor Sarah and her mom came with us as well. A fun time for us all. We need to make this a yearly tradition.

  1. That's hilarious about the hair cuts! My sister cut my BIL's ear one time so badly that she had to take him to the ER. That was the last time she cut his hair.
