Berry picking!

Last week we visited a local berry patch and picked buckets and buckets of berries.  Dorothy had a *sore throat* that got really bad once she caught wind of us going to the berry patch.  Since I am such a responsible mother I let her play hookie and go with us!  We had a good time picking (I actually LOVE it, who knew?)  Then we came home and made jam all afternoon!

Some of our spoils!
