One of my favorite things to do in North Carolina is go and pick fresh fruit. Strawberries and Blueberries are our favorites. The month of May brought about Strawberry picking season so a strawberry picking we went. Kim and I decided to go after school one day so Jaynie and Jane could go with us and I thought it would take us forever, but I was amazed at how fast we filled five gallon sized buckets with strawberries. I guess it's true what they say, "many hands makes work light."
The fruits of our labors.

Strawberry Shortcake
