Blackberry pickin'

This morning we headed out to Blueberry Hill Farms with Nana and Papa to pick some blackberries. The girls were all excited about it, especially Camden, who loves to eat blackberries off the vine. We went in and got our buckets. Unfortunately, there weren't a lot of blackberries to pick because a big crew of people came in yesterday and picked tons. But, we did find at least a bucket full and it was so fun to watch Camden and Claire start looking for big, black berries. After a while of picking, Claire started getting bored and I started getting a little warm. So, we headed off to find a picnic table to rest at. We went in the store and got a couple of blueberry muffins and some blueberry lemonade for a snack. Yummy!! The tops of the muffins had icing on them. Claire ate off the top and then she was done. Camden ate her muffin and really wanted to eat some blackberries, but was disappointed when we told her we had to pay for them first. Despite the heat, it was a fun morning. But, we were definitely glad to get in the car with the A/C.
