Cherry Pickers

We have lived in our house for over 3 years, and have never had a chance to enjoy the cherries off of our tree. Usually the birds and squirrel ls just stanch them right up before we know it, they are all gone! This year we were sitting at dinner one Sunday afternoon and I noticed there were still a large amount of cherries on the tree, so out we went. The kids loved picking cherries. Claire especially enjoyed climbing the ladder, while Owen loved that he could stand on the pick-up. Claire loved it so much that the next day she was more than willing to help some friends who came over to get some. We got plenty of cherries, although they were not quite ripe, they were delicious. It was a fun activity for everyone!
