I took the girls to pick blackberries. We have a place not too far from us that lets you go on their property and pick the berries you want. Then, you just pay for the ones you bring back from the orchard. Jaden wanted to pick blackberries and blueberries, but we had to start with one berry at a time. Since people were already picking away at the blackberries, the owner suggested we hit the blackberries first (before they were all gone). It took an hour and a half, and I still didn't fill up the one gallon bucket! The girls were tired and hot, so we decided to save the blueberries for the next time we go.I don't think Morgan ever contributed blackberries to the big bucket we were trying to fill. She ate every one of the berries that she found!!!
They did have some blueberries already picked, so we got a bag of those before we left. Now we have delicious berries to make crisps & cobblers!! YUM!!!

Did you go to Bailey's Berry Patch? It looks like the same place we went to last summer! We got there early, like 8:30, last year and it was sooo HOT by the time we left an hour later! It was fun though, and I keep saying I want to go again. I thought she lost her blueberries this year because of the late freeze. Maybe they revived them?!!?
