Pickin' Berries!

So it all started when I was going to transplant some of late Grandma Sigri's Tiger Lillies out of my dad's garden this spring. My dad showed me the general area of the lillies and so I dug a few out and transplanted them into my flower garden this spring. Well instead of getting some of Grandma's Tiger Lillies I ended up getting some of my dad's strawberry plants. Teague loved that they grew some strawberries that he could eat so I thought maybe he would want to go to the strawberry patch just a mile from our house and pick some berries. He loved it and was such a good helper! Even though it was just a mile down the road I OF COURSE forgot his shoes so we had to make a U-turn to go home and get some shoes. Weeeeeellllll, that small county road apparently has ditches that are VERY steep - so needless to say the back end of my car fell into the ditch and my front wheel was OFF THE GROUND! Luckily some nice boys were driving by and they along with Ryan were able to lift my back end up and we squeeled (literally) out of the ditch. Oh my gosh....Ryan was NOT happy with me! So we went home and made a few pies - one of which we delivered to farmer Dave and we saved some berries to make desserts for this weekend. Enjoy our pictures - and no, I don't know the Grandma in the background whose butt is in every picture!
