Busy summer time schtuff

I have posted before that during strawberry season we are blessed by friends who bring over boxes, crates and containers of these beautiful strawberries that are grown locally.
This season I made strawberry/Rhubarb pie, strawberry jam, strawberry smoothies. Then we were SUPER blessed with flats of BlackBerries! Uhm YEA, MY ALL TIME FAV!!! I made blackberry cobblers, like 5 of them. Blackberry smoothies and then pretty much ate handfuls out of bowls all day with Livie, who, as you can see LOVES THEM TOO!!!
After we finished with the blackberries, we got some funny lookin squash..... Liv wouldnt go near 'em! lol

We also celebrated Liv's birthday which was back in June but had a party on July 4th. She was SUPER excited about her Wow Wow Wubbzy cake and when everyone sang happy birthday to her I thought she was gonna fall off of her chair! lol
Here are some pics of our summer schtuff!
