Blueberry Picking Adventure~ Recipe




 One morning last week the kids and I set out for a blueberry picking adventure.

We all had a great time and have been eating blueberries by the handful!
 You just can not beat $1 a pound. We will be heading back for more fresh blueberries soon.  
One of summers charms! 
Thanking the Lord for time with my children and well..............blueberries~

blueberries are out favorite thing about summer! i can't belive you can pick them for $1 a pound! That's AWESOME! They are more like $3 a pound here in VA. I would pick all I could and OH there is so much you can do with them.

Too, what a great thing to bring the children along to help you do!
