Cherries!

The time finally arrived and we are now able to pick the amazing cherries from our two cherry trees!  Last year we didn't realize these two trees were cherry trees so we didn't spare in time and they were covered in worms.  I was so disappointed in that!  We love cherries but I don't like paying the high prices for them in the stores.  SO, this year we were prepared, sprayed and are now picking!  So far we've gotten 14lbs and there's still more!  I've made three pies (2 for the freezer and one was for Father's Day.. it was SO yummy!)  This week I'll be working on freezing the rest, picking more and maybe getting in time to can them.  

 The kids have all had fun climbing the ladder and picking!
