Blueberry Meadows

Even before we moved to Oregon, this was something I was looking forward to. The most delicious fresh fruit and veggies right down the road.
This weekend we had a family date night- Blueberry Picking!

Well, of course we took way too many pictures...
(I've been trying some new things in photoshop, so nevermind the lack of "matchiness".)

I asked Stephen to be the main photographer today, since I am usually behind the camera. I figured Jacob should probably have at least a few pics of his mom in his book. I'd say he captured some good stuff... Thanks Stephen, these mean the world to me.

The teaching, the tasting, the sharing...

He became a natural born berry picker. He only got stuck in the bush a couple times, and actually enjoyed the blueberries! I have been trying to get him to taste them for over a year now but he's always refused. It was a good day for both of us!

I LOVE this picture- can you see who he's carting around in his bucket along with the blueberries?

Pretty special watching him learn and taste new things.

We went home with all this for only two dollars. Now for some blueberry muffins, cobbler, pancakes, etc. Who wants to come visit?

Cute pictures! You can't beat the taste of freshly-picked local berries.

Great pictures! It's important to get in front of the camera every so often :) I thought of you guys today as we drove past your old apartment.

Great pictures! Jacob is so cute Julia! I love his curls. How do you make your pictures big on your blog?
