Strawberry Picking

It's that time of year again! We tried out Gallmeyer Farms this year. And, while the strawberries are small, they sure are delicious - juicy and sweet! We picked about 7 quarts!!! We have already had a yummy strawberry pie and smoothies. Now, to find a few new recipes.

Our trip in pictures:

Camp-Out

For a few weeks Josie and daddy have been talking about having a camp-out. Deciding the backyard was the way to start, they planned for a Saturday night date. Unfortunately the rain gods were watching and decided to try to rain on their parade. However, thanks to some quick thinking and a few modifications, Josie and daddy were still able to have their camp-out, playroom floor style!

Setting up and getting started in the beach tent:

What's a camp-out without s'mores?!?

Indoor camping = success!
Next stop, the backyard - - if daddy's aching back can take it!
