Cherry picking at the end of July in Door County. We took a day trip up there while the picking was good and stocked up on Montmorency cherries for the rest of the year. It was definitely a challenge to pick while Alena ran around! She knows how to get into trouble and conveniently not listen everywhere! Levi wouldn't let us go too far away (especially Mama) so Daddy had to pick the bulk of the cherries. They are totally yummy and worth it!

Here's Alena checking what's in her bucket... or is she spitting her pit into it? We tried to make a game out of spitting out the cherry pits so she would feel less compelled to ingest them (although, in typical Alena fashion, she ate a whole bunch of pits) by spitting them out into her hand and throwing them.

And trying to help pick cherries. Most of the branches were just a bit out of her reach!

Levi supervised the whole operation from the comfort of his stroller.

Helping by climbing a ladder, just like Daddy!

Cute photo op!

Yeah, Levi got out of the stroller and got to ride in Mama's sling!
