In The Garden

Before lunch, we went and picked blackberries at Lewis Farms.  My mom and Chase were the first to "tap out".  It was toooo hot for them.  So my mom, Chase, Claire and Henri went to sit down and drink water while Audrey and I worked on filling up a second bucket of blackberries.  We usually get ice cream when we're done picking, so the kids were quite disappointed when I said, "No way, no ice cream.  We've had ice cream every night since Friday!"  

We have a few different gardens at our house-- an herb garden, vegetable garden and a flower (aka butterfly) garden.  Here are some pics that I took....
