Blueberry Picking!

Yesterday we went blueberry picking with Jen and the kids. Eliza started off ready to pick and was so excited. But....she grew tired of picking blueberries for her container after about 5 or 6 were in there and opted to just pick and eat, pick and eat. I had to take over after several attempts at getting her to find the ripe ones. Eliza did MUCH better last summer when she did not get bored so quickly. Audrey did a great job though! We ended up only filling two pints as I had to battle with Eliza over running out in the dirt road. Plus, it was so hot and we were sweating!

Oh, and at this farm the blueberry picking was an honor system! You put your money in the cash box and take out your change, and take your pints. Love it!

Blueberries for Sal (or, Eliza)

We decided to get out of the house and do something as a family this weekend as I have been mostly house bound for the past week and a half. We went to a local farm to take Eliza blueberry picking. She loved it! Although, she needed many reminders about keeping the blueberries in the bucket. She thought she was so great dragging around the bucket and pitched a fit when we had to give the bucket back. Here are a few pictures.
