Blueberry pickin

We went to Bybee Farm today for U Pick Blueberries.  Mike and the girls went with some friends of ours earlier in the week but I wanted a berry picking fix and Mike and Olivia were happy to oblige.  There is something very calming about picking berries - from bushes that is (blueberries, raspberries, blackberries) as strawberries are a bit low to the ground to be fun.

Not 100% necessary but it's always fun to wear welly boots

Bybee Farm is right at the base of Mt. Si

Delicious bluberries

Cecily Page will enjoy blueberry picking next year.  This year she hung out in the Ergo and pulled at leaves.

Olivia with a handful of berries, most of which probably made it into the bucket.

And she's posing

Our haul!  Mike and Olivia just left to go get some lavender for blueberry/lavender jam and blueberry muffins.  Mmmm.

 

With the exception of about 4 hot days, we've had a wet and chilly summer so far this year.  This about sums it up :-)
