On Saturday, the kids and I went blueberry picking.\u00a0 We went to the same farm that we got our blueberries from last year.\u00a0\u00a0The\u00a0little kids had fun but the two youngest had enough after about 20 minutes or so of picking blueberries.\u00a0 Well those two mainly ate the blueberries.\u00a0 \ud83d\ude42\u00a0 This farm provides different size bungee cords and you can hook the buckets around you and you don’t have to carry the buckets while you are picking.\u00a0 In one of the photos below, Sweet Pea is wearing three buckets (hers and the youngest two’s buckets) and a few minutes after this photo was taken she had Peanut and Lil’ Bit’s buckets around her as well.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, we\u00a0went blueberry picking as a family, minus the two youngest.\u00a0 My mom watched them for the afternoon and they were thrilled to spend time there.\u00a0 On the way to the blueberry farm I saw a post from one of my friends that she was blueberry picking with her kids at another blueberry farm in the area.\u00a0I read the raving reviews so we decided to visit this farm.\u00a0 Sunday was their first\u00a0day open for u-pick.\u00a0 This farm\u00a0was the same price as the other farm ($3\/lb) but offered a $0.50\/lb\u00a0discount if you picked 20 lbs or more.\u00a0\u00a0They are a\u00a0Christian farm.\u00a0\u00a0Approx in the middle of their blueberry field they\u00a0have a water table with a\u00a0cooler of water and cups.\u00a0 They also had someone that\u00a0drove around on a golf\u00a0cart and handed out small bottles of water for free!<\/p>\n
