blueberry picking with grammy


the girls and i went blueberry picking for the first time with grammy! :) it was amazingly hot, but the girls were troopers (okay, grammy and i were too!). they were so cute trying to find a good patch to pick from! ken and mck were really into it! they did great too . . . weeding out the "yucky" berries and grabbing the "really purple ones!" they picked quite a few . . . you'd be amazed how much time you spend picking and how slowly the buckets fill up! kam did great EATING the berries! she was really funny . . . she'd kind of sneak up next to ken or mck's bucket stick her hand in and grab a handful before the girls could shout "MOM, she's stealing our blueberries again!" she would kind of smirk and shove the handful in her mouth . . . there's no telling how many she ate! :)

mck and ken are PICKING the berries . . . kam is STEALING them! :)

we picked almost 4 pounds of blueberries! grammy made blueberry pancakes for the girls and we made blueberry cookies and blueberry/raspberry cobbler at home! a yummmmmmy treat! there is only a handful left in the freezer, but i think this will be a new summer tradition! cereal was a whole lot more delicious with a handful of fresh blueberries on top! :)


HOT and TIRED after an hour and a half of PICKING! :)
after picking we hit the local sonic for some yummy drinks and lunch! :) thanks for a fun day, grammy!
