Blueberry Farm

Some friends told us about a blueberry farm nearby that sells you-pick-'em-blueberries for only $1.50 a pound!! WOW! We decided to include this blueberry farm in our next "Family Fun Friday," especially since Ian had loved the blackberry farm so much.
It was a hot, sunny day, but we had a good, though sweaty, time. Ian MOSTLY chose the dark, plump blueberries to pick and only sometimes picked (and ate!) the green or red ones that weren't yet ripe!
Most of the blueberries seemed to be up high, so Momma and Daddy took turns holding Ian and picking blueberries.
Some of the blueberries were low enough for Ian to reach on his own. We ended up picking about 4 pounds of berries. It's been such a treat to eat fresh, yummy blueberries. Today, we're having blueberry muffins! Below is a video of Ian picking blueberries.
