Our chickens started laying eggs last week!

Well, it was a great summer! I would have updated sooner, but the reason I didn't is all Middle Sister's fault!  She got me hooked on digital scrapbooking, so everytime I sat down at the computer, I just wanted to scrap my pictures, not blog about them!    (ha, ha, just kiddin' sis!)

Here are a few snapshots from our summer fun; the kids will be adding to their blogs hopefully tomorrow!

We had a great time at the strawberry farm.......

~

~

It was a beautiful place.  We picked 40 lbs of strawberries in less than an hour!!  I froze about half of them and turned the other half into strawberry jelly.  We also had strawberry shortcakes and strawberry topped ice cream!

We've also been picking peas......

Nature Grrl loves raw peas, so we have to watch her or she'll eat them all!

Check out their blogs soon because Crazy Calvin is going to show you a snake that was trapped in our garden fence and Nature Grrrl is going to show you how to make your own unique outfit!
