Blueberry Picking 2010

We geared up for our annual blueberry picking trip this morning. Ainsley was so excited and couldn't wait, she had talked about it for a whole month! It was a beautiful morning and the bushes were full. It was the best picking that we have seen in the three years that we now have gone.

Andrew loved carrying the bucket. We picked just enough berries that by the end of the morning he couldn't carry it without some help.

Ainsley was so surprised to see how full the bushes were. It was easy this year for her to truly pick the berries. The berries made it into the bucket more than the tummy also. She remembered the blueberry lemonade and the yummy cookies from last year and was saving room.

It was a really successful, fun day. It has been such a joy in my life to see the children love each other in the little sweet moments they don't know I see.

The berry train ride was so fun. Ainsley graciously let her brother sit with her for a short photo op. Andrew was disappointed, he is still too little to ride the train alone.

Rosy cheeks and big smiles all around!
