Blueberry Hill

Blueberry season is finally here!!!  Lauren, we love blueberries. Mommy ate them her entire pregnancy, and I wonder if that is why you love them so.  Tonight, was your first official evening of blueberry picking.  Our neighbor, Anthony, told us that the first of the blueberries were ready, so we did not waste any time before we headed down the driveway to "Blueberry Hill". ( God has blessed us with the most wonderful Christian neighbors- Anthony and Janice.  They have a small blueberry farm in their front yard, and they graciously allow us to pick as many blueberries as we desire.  Also, as a special honor, they named a row of bluberries after you! )

As soon as you saw the blueberries, you started picking and eating. ( So did mommy and daddy! ) Not many of the blueberries made it to your bucket!  In fact, one little lonesome blueberry rolled around in your white bucket.  The rest, well, they were a delicious, healthy snack!

There will certainly be more blueberry picking in the near future, possibly even again this week.  As we picked, we talked about all the delicious recipes that we enjoy with this special ingredient- blueberry muffins, blueberry pancakes, blueberry cobbler, and mommy's favorite- vanilla yogurt with blueberries and bananas.  Ok, I'm getting hungry!!!  I'm sure you will have just as much fun helping me cook as you did picking the berries.  That will have to be another post- Mommy and Lauren in the kitchen!!!
