"boos in the buck"

Today we went blueberry ("boos") picking. We got out early because it was very hot and met up with Molly and Carson (so great to visit with them!). On the way to the farm in the car we read Blueberries for Sal and talked about how Lydda Grace was going to pick blueberries just like little Sal and put them in her bucket ("buck").

"boos, buck, lil' Sal, boos, boos, lil' Sal, buck" We heard this over and over :) She was clearly excited.

We told LG to only pick the blue ones to put in her bucket and she did a great job! She put about 15 in her bucket before she ate one. Then she ate all the ones in her bucket and thereafter ate every single one as she picked them!!! But she was so sweet, she stayed with us while we picked and just ate boos to her hearts content.

It was a very fun family outing that we'll definitely repeat. (And Wade slept the WHOLE time!) Sorry no pictures....

I almost had Carson grab the camera:( Well, we'll just have to do it again and get some pictures.

Hey Emily! I've been checking in on your blog every now and then since Christy told me about it a while ago. I love your stories about Lydda Grace, and Wade is such a cute little fella! I've been looking for a place to take Darcy blueberry picking. Do you mind telling me where y'all went?
