berry picking

This past weekend, we went with some friends to do berry picking at one of the local u-pick farms. The season has just started, so blackberries were the only fruit that was open.

Jamison got to ride in one of the carts.



This worked until we started to fill the cart with berries. At that point, Jamison was crawling all over the place eating berries out of the baskets. That must be why they charge an entry fee for adults -- to pay for all the munching that goes on along the way.

Here are some pictures of us hunting for the perfect berries.





Jessica was excited to show us the fruit of her picking. Of course, she preferred the red berries to the black, so we had to keep telling her the good blackberries are all black.
