Strawberry picking!

I went strawberry picking once, I think when I was about 12 years old.  I loved it so much I've wanted to go again ever since.  It took 25 years, but I finally got to go again. I took the kids strawberry-picking last Wednesday at Stades Farm in McHenry county and we all LOVED it!  The weather couldn't have been more perfect and the strawberries were so sweet and delicious.  I think this might have to become an annual tradition. We met Emma (one of Carolines' friends from kindergarten) and her family.

Hmmmm....yeah, these are pretty good.
