I haven’t shared much of my personal life on my blog (other than via my Instagram account!), and this year I plan to share more of my family. And I decided that summertime fun in Minnesota is simply the best, so I’ll start with that.

We recently went strawberry picking at Lorence’s Berry Farm in Northfield, Minnesota with some extended family. I had never picked my own strawberries before and always wanted to! Plus, you can EAT AS MANY AS YOU WANT. Let me tell you, there is nothing more delicious than sun-warmed strawberries, fresh from the field. They are easy to pick and is a great way to get some much-needed vitamin D on a nice day!

This was Brynlee’s first berry-picking experience as well, which she enjoyed from her stroller, and on the shoulders of Dad. She made sure to dress for the occasion (see photos below) and can’t wait to get in the field and do her own pickin’ next year.

Grandma didn’t want to miss out on any of the fun, either!

We already picked the most perfect little berry 🙂
