Our Strawberry Shortcake



We live not to far from some u-pick strawberry fields. Since we have lived here we have gone every year and picked strawberries for jam. This year we didn't need any jam but we couldn't pass up the chance to see this little girl run wild in a field of strawberries and eat to her hearts content. From the picture you can see that's exactly what she did.  You buy the strawberries by the pound and you weigh what you pick as you leave the field. John-David asked the lady in charge of the field if we should weigh Jocelyn before entering the field and after as she was leaving. We figured that would be where most of our strawberries went. Fortunately, She has friends who also came to enjoy the strawberries. They didn't seem to care if the strawberries were red, green, white, dirty or clean. They just ate. Oh, the joys of childhood.

You have such a cute family! I hope someday I get to meet them because little Jocelyn sounds like she'd get along with my Amber perfectly. Yeah, lucky you. It's going to snow tonight. Ugh. I miss Utah sometimes!

That is just precious. She is such a little stinker. You just know by the pictures you post how darn cute they are! I am glad you were able to just let her run!
