Blueberry Picking

Well, I finally have a moment to go back and blog a bit.  Back in July we went blueberry picking.  That was a different experience for us.  We are not big berry eaters of any kind, but we love blueberries in smoothies.  It was a hot, very sunny day.  And the berries were heavily picked over, so we had to dig to find them.  I was afraid that I would need to limit us to one bucketful.  Not an issue.





We would search til we found some dark blue ones.  They start as green, then turn red, then dark blue.  We were told they would not continue to ripen once picked, so we needed to only get blue ones.  After we picked them, we looked through to make sure they were all blue before putting them into the bucket.  


Cutest helper ever!!!!!


After finishing up and getting a drink.  Look at the boy's hair.  He is a seriously sweaty boy.  

We joined other homeschoolers for some blueberry science.  Yep, homeschoolers meet all year long.  



This boy loves some chemistry.  He was a happy fella.
