Blackberry Time

It's that time of year again. The blackberries are ripe. We drove out to Amber Oaks Farm today to pick a flat. Our new neighbors and friends came along with us. We all had a really good time. I can't wait to cook up some blackberry goodness!
Ready to do some picking!!



Taste test.
Juicy and ripe.

Jacob took advantage of a momentary distraction to get a closer look at some blackberry leaves.
I was so in love with these little baskets they gave the kids to use.

Grandma even got in on the act.Jacob managed to pluck one and almost had it in his mouth before Mommy grabbed it.
