BLUEBERRIES!!

Ottowa Farms is a really cute little farm about 10 minutes from our house. They have pick your own blueberries and strawberries. The day we went they were also selling watermelon, cantaloupe and okra. MMMM!! We asked a few of our friends to go with us and pick blueberries and it was great!! Here is Carter smiling and picking blueberries.
We decided to pick blueberries in the afternoon around 1:00 and it was very hot!! As you can see, Cooper was hot as well! I found him under several blueberry bushes picking the berries from under the bush. He was too cute:)
YUMMY! Between us all, I think we got about 10 pounds of blueberries. All of the children were eating them right off of the bush. I have to admit that I was too:) They were so sweet and not at all tart!
Here is our group of pickers:) We are missing one child in the photo, Ethan, because he had been bitten by an ant. He was not a happy picker. From left to right, Garrett, Cooper, Chloe, Carter and Emeline. I think the kids had a good time even though it was hot. When we paid for the blueberries, the lady at the farm showed the children a bull and several goats as well. They were excited!!
We have made many blueberry recipes with our fresh picks! We have made
blueberry cookies, blueberry buckle and blueberry cloud pie. All of which were hits!!
