Blueberries 2011

One of my favorite memories from last summer was picking blueberries.  We went out a couple of times and picked upwards of 10 pounds of berries-enough to get us through the entire winter.  Last night we headed out to Russell's Blueberry Farm in Freeland.  We thought it would be fun to take Grace's BFF, Graceyn, along with us. 

The girls were well-behaved for the most part, but things quickly spiraled out of control when they both decided they needed to pee while picking.  Before I could stop them, they took off their clothes and squatted on the grass-Grace, peeing all over the outfit she was wearing.  She then proceeded to take off all of her peed-on clothing and run around naked.  I wish I could say we had the place to ourselves, but there were other "pickers" there as well.  As soon as things seemed to calm down, Graceyn said  had to poop.  They always have such great timing.

Fortunately we managed to pick 5lbs of berries before we called it a night.  And, fortunately, we got out of there without any little children falling into the port-a-john.  

By the time we left, neither one had any berries left in her bucket
