Strawberry Jam

On Sunday afternoon, the kids, Grandma Selhorst, and I went to Fulton Farms to pick strawberries.  We got back to Columbus on Monday around lunch and then made jam!  24 jelly jars and 3 freezer pints.  It was our first time making homemade jam and it's delicious!

Anna enjoyed picking the strawberries more than anyone else.  Xavier and Isabelle thought it was too hot, so they picked a few and then left me and Anna to finish!
Xavier and Anna played on the wooden train set for a little bit after strawberry picking.
Everyone helped make the jam.  Brian and Isabelle cut the tops off the strawberries and Anna and Xavier cut up the strawberries (kind of).
 Xavier and Anna were both very diligent in their cutting...

  1. Nothing like home made strawberry jam. It was nice of everyone to help.

  2. I'm sure Isabelle, Xavier and Anna will always remember this and will enjoy the jam more since they helped.
