Blueberry Picking

We are finally up to the present! Yeah!! Last weekend, Mary Laine went with some friends to the local blueberry farm to pick some yummy blueberries. There is just no comparison to store-bought blueberries. These were so much bigger and so much sweeter - AND so much more fun to get! It started to rain when we first got there, but after a few minutes, the sun came out and it was a gorgeous day. I was able to pick about 3 lbs of blueberries. I gave Mary Laine a little basket, but only a few actually made it in there. She learned quickly which ones were ripe and those went straight to her little mouth. She was very blue when we were finished. We had to leave before all of the friends because Mary Laine was exhausted. We're already looking forward to going back next year! :-)

Aubrey and Sarah Frances are showing her how it's done

Quickly getting the hang of it

We were hoping for a cute picture of her with John Reed - but Mary Laine was done for the day!

Kathryn - such great pictures and memories you have. I went strawberry picking the other day - I'm sure that Mary Laine would be a great strawberry picker as well.
