Blueberry Pickin'

This morning we got up bright and early and left to go pick blueberries at a farm in Franklin with friends Rachel and Brock. It was great to catch up with them and let the boys play. Brock is 3 months older than Connor and they havent been able to see each other much since we moved last October. (they lived a few houses down from us at our old house) We joked as we searched for berries about how we felt for the berry pickers and I can certainly understand why they are so expensive in the stores. It took us over an hour and a half to pick 1 pound of blueberries! They gave us a big bucket and I didnt think we would have to try that hard to fill it. There were clusters of berries at the very top, but it was hard to get to them so we picked as many as we could within reach. The boys were great! I forgot the camera and Rachels battery was dead so we didnt get any pics- bummer! I did take a few when we got home of our prized berries! Now, what to do with them... I love them fresh, but I will probably make some muffins. If you have any great recipes feel free to pass them along.

You would think from this next picture that Connor actually likes blueberries, but he wasnt too crazy about them today when we were picking them.

This picture is a little blurry but I had to put it on here to show you what a ham C is!

These are the flowers that I got for my birthday! Brad was out of town all week so it was just me and Connor. We had a good day!




This picture was taken last weekend when Grandy and Nonna came down to spend the night. They kept Connor for us so we could go out to dinner and see "The Dark Knight", which was excellent by the way!

And the next one is kind of random, but I thought it was so funny! Connor is reading the pamphlet with the list of channels for Dish Network. He looks just like a little man. Already he is becoming a little couch potato!
