Raspberry Picking

"Ready to pick!"
With the weather being a whole lot less hot/humid than normal last month, I ventured out with the kids and some friends to the Berry Patch to pick some raspberries! The purple raspberries were in high season and the bushes were just packed full of them!  Yummm....
 And while Juliana liked picking the berries, she wasn't thrilled with the tasting (I KNOW!  The girl eats dirt, but yummy raspberries are not quite her pallet??).  So, we switched to pretzels and that was okay.



If looks could kill, huh?  Apparently, Kari wasn't thrilled with me taking her picture.

 The kids actually picked quite a bit!  We had 7 or 8 pints when all was said and done.


 Christian was my hardest worker (no surprise there!) and he did a great job filling up those pints!
Our little pickers!
Not sure if we'll get lucky with another July as nice this last one--sure glad we made the most of it and went pickin'!
