Daryl, Mom, Dad, and Anna went blueberry picking today and picked 60+ pounds - 32 pounds for us! It was a good day for blueberry picking with highs only near 70. We ate some (a LOT!) and froze the rest. Samuel and Hope went with them. Hope picked 0.22lbs (and was so proud of them) and Samuel told everyone that his tummy was his bucket today. And then he told everyone that his tummy bucket was full. Haha! I stayed at home with Karys and Aliyah - I missed being out there with everyone this year but it was a wise choice, I think. My kids loved eating the fresh blueberries! Aliyah was two-fisting it for awhile . . . standing next to the table, shoveling one fistful after another into her mouth. We brushed her teeth tonight and a few minutes later found her standing next to the table eating more blueberries!
**Edited to add: The next morning when Aliyah woke up and came downstairs the first question out of her mouth was, "Where are all the blueberries?" (We had put them all in ziploc bags and moved them to the freezer.) I told her the last of the fresh ones were in the fridge in a bowl - she went straight to that fridge to grab a handful! :)
