Blueberries!!

Blueberries are one of our very favorite things in our house. K loves them! He can eat them by the truckload. This past week we went blueberry picking with some friends and we hit the motherload! I took my friend (and her 3 kids) on a wild blueberry adventure (luckily, more wild for me than her since I got a little turned around while driving there) to a wonderful farm just outside of our city. The farm came highly recommended to me, and K and I had gone there last year to pick. Between our two families I think we came away with almost 5 buckets, and we picked off probably only 5-6 bushes! The limbs were drooping to the ground with loads of heavenly blue berries. Some about the size of a nickel, and oh, so tasty!
The berry picking crew! (Minus the two who actually picked the berries.) K and C, "the girl", are real buds... we even caught a few glimpses of them holding hands on our berry adventure!

K back at home... showing off "his" berries. He actually picked quite a few, probably the most of all the kids, and some even made it into his bucket. :-)
I think another trip to this particular berry farm will need to be on our calendar this summer!
