Berry Special Visit

A couple of weeks ago we had a BERRY special visit! Grandma and Grandpa came for their Spring visit. They were here just in time for Strawberry picking and we were so glad they were here to help!

There were sooooo many berries to be picked at our favorite farm! Grandpa taught Cupcake how to seek out the perfect red berries. Grandma made short order of her box. 14 pounds later we stopped for a picnic lunch and some jumping on the air-trampoline. It was a super fun day at the farm and then a BERRY sweet weekend of Strawberry tarts, Strawberry bread, Strawberry Ice Cream, Strawberries on cereal, Strawberry Pie for neighbors....you get the drift. It was so fun to have them here for the berry picking adventure!

Cutie Pie just watched this year:

I need to go out to SBF when it's berry picking season. The thought of picking fresh strawberries sounds SO yummy! Those loaves and tart looks so good. I could see myself devouring all of it in one sitting. Easy.
