A couple of weeks ago we rode the ferry's to Ekerts to pick blackberries. Our original plan was to pick peaches as well but apparently they weren't available to pick that day. So off to the blackberry fields we went!
Oliver has never had blackberries before but he loved them! I don't think he put a single one in the basket though. Every one he picked (which was a lot) went straight in his mouth. :)
It was a wet, rainy day so we ended up being the only people there that day. I think both the rain and the fact that is was a random Tuesday had a part in it. One big perk to me being part time and Eric's constantly changing schedule. A lot of times Mondays and Tuesdays are days all 4 of us go do things together since Eric works so many weekends.
We filled 2 baskets with blackberries to take home, both of the kids were gobbling them up so we made sure to pick a ton.
Wouldn't you know that they both stuffed themselves silly with blackberries that they didn't want to eat another one once we paid for them and brought them home. They all went straight to the freezer for smoothies.
Ollie found a big stick and did his best to hit everything in sight.
On our way out the kids played on the playground and Eric and Ollie shared a peach we bought in the market store.
And I think the highlight of Elle's day was this bag of cotton candy we let her buy. :)
Apple season is next! My favorite!!
