Blueberries!


Last week we had such nice, sunny weather that we decided to take Aiden blueberry picking after work one night. Owl's Head Blueberry Farm near our house has live music while you pick several nights each week, and pickers usually spread out blankets on the hill after they're done picking to have a picnic supper and listen to music. It was hot, but Aiden had a great time picking blueberries (green and ripe) from the backpack carrier and eating them by the handfuls. We had to hide the full quart containers of berries after they were picked so that he wouldn't eat and/or mash them all.
