Raspberry Picking at Orr's Farm

I took advantage of some gorgeous weather and took the boys to Orr's Farm this week. Rob got a much deserved day on the golf course and I dragged the boys to pick raspberries! It was actually really fun. We took a hay ride out to the patch and picked 8 pints of berries. I think Chance picked more leaves than berries, but he sure had fun. Colin got bored after one pint, and relaxed under a nearby apple tree in the shade. The weather was perfect, the boys did great and we had a wonderful day. We came home and made 10 jars of jam. Cannon had a blast smashing the berries. He keeps asking if we can smash more and make more jam! If anyone wants so, let me know! We still have 8 jars and it is GOOD!
