On July 1st, Anna and I along with lots of friends (about 13 little girls and 3 little boys from China) from our FCC group, went blueberry picking on top of Blueberry Hill bright and early in the morning. That is the true name of the farm and it is only about 4 miles from our house. This fine old southern gentleman grows his many rows of blueberry bushes with no pesticides so we could eat as we picked. YUM! It was fun to see all of the children in their patriotic clothes picking and eating blueberries up and down Blueberry Hill. The weather was perfect, not too hot which is unusual for July! We all went for a picnic lunch afterwards. As from the photos you can see Anna and I picked our fair share---7 quarts to be exact! We ate a bunch, put some in the fridge to make blueberry pancakes, and Anna helped me put the rest in 20 small freezer bags to use later. This girl is definitely my little worker bee and best helper. She stuck with me the whole time, only stopping for a moment to play with a ladybug!
