Cherry Pickin' Birthday Party

On Saturday we celebrated a combined birthday party for Sierra and Ally. Although I have offered to invite their friends the last couple of years, both girls still just wanted a family party. (I LOVE THAT!) So - Grandpa & Grandpa, Chuck and Missy and all of the Becks met us at Tyler's Orchard in Emmett for some mid-morning cherry picking. We haven't picked cherries anywhere else, but we HIGHLY recommend this orchard if you're looking for a fun outing with your family. Saturday was a beautiful and sunny day! We had personalized buckets ready for everyone and the girls wore some homemade cherry outfits. By the way - I'm loving my new sewing machine. Just wish there were a few more hours in each day that I could spend at this new hobby. Anyway - Everyone had a great time picking (AND EATING!!!) lots of cherries and when the buckets were full we drove over to The Pizza Factory for some lunch, cake and presents. They have a side room that was the perfect place for us to hang out. Unfortunately, half of our pictures are still stuck on the camera's memory card. If anyone has any suggestions for retrieving "damaged or corrupted files" we would love to hear from you! But here are a few from the first half of the day.

The cousins were waiting on the blanket for the "go ahead" to pick cherries.

Meanwhile, Valerie was already shoving cherries into her mouth as fast as she could.
