Strawberries!!!

Guess who got up at 6am to start picking strawberries with the sun?

My family!!!:)

Grammy and Grandpa's church is having its annual Strawberry Social this Wednesday, but they needed help picking the strawberries. So, my family of 6 plus Grandpa loaded into the car before 7 this morning and went to pick strawberries. It was a lot of fun, even when rain started to shower down on us.
Note the irrigation system, though due to the insane amt of rain we've had for the past WEEK, we don't think it's been used in a while.

Strawberries here we come!!

Tim and Grandpa were on a roll with their berry picking.

YUM! Phil and I collected 2 baskets weighing about 13 lbs each:)
Hard at work despite the rain that started coming down.
My misletoe strawberry. Very berry beautiful!
All in all we collected over 484 lbs of strawberries! YUM, I cannot wait for Wednesday night's Strawberry Social - Unlimited (?) Strawberry Shortcake, my FAVE!!
