Pickin Berries
We went berry picking this last weekend, and it was so much fun! We are going again this coming weekend, as well as peach picking. LOTS of canning in my weekend forecast, but come this winter it will be so nice to have a taste of summer! Here are some pics:
We picked 18# of berries in about 2 hours. This was our first time ever to go, so we thought we did OK! You can pick on shares at this farm, meaning they keep 2/3 of what you pick, but your other 1/3 is free!

Just thought I would share these- the kids just love harvesting the "fruit" of their labors!

Spring's work
The garden is in, the yard is mowed, the chicken coop is built (mostly), and yet there is still a ton of work to do. The front beds need attention, the paths need to be built, the back beds need lots of work.............it just never ends!
There is school planning for summer term and fall, not to mention housework and organizing that needs, well, help.
And the scrapbooks! E was crying the other day because she wanted to look at her baby book and she doens't have one. :(
I need 36 hours each day just to think about getting it all done.
On another note, mom is getting settled (if you want to call it that); hospice has been out and gotten her a hospital bed and her medications, meals on wheels is coming, and Chuck is taking a walkie-talkie out to the garden with him when he goes.
He finally allowed us to go and visit her last week. It has been nearly a year since we were allowed in "his" house.
Here are some pics that were taken this last month. Some are of my birthday, some are my attempts at photography. Keep in mind I did say attempts.
These were some of my attempts to capture W at 7 mos old; now it is time to have his 8 mo pics made!
He is pulling up on everything now, and his greatest desire is to stand unhindered by a helper. He would climb everything if he could! He is trying to cruise around the furniture, but hasn't quite mastered the art as of yet. Diaper changes are an acrobatic event- maybe it will be in the olympics!
