Blueberry Picking!

The boys and I went over to an area farm to pick blue berries the last Friday in July. I dressed them in long pants and lots of bug spray as the bugs had been pretty bad and I wasn't sure what to expect in the fields. They had some baby blue berry bushes that were perfect for the boys. However, neither one contributed to the bottom line. They just sat and ate berries straight off the bush while I filled our bucket. I just had the girl charge me for an extra 1/2 lb because I wasn't exactly sure how many they ate, but it was pretty much non-stop consumption for the 30 minutes we were there! I ended up with 3.5lbs of blueberries!

Quick - Unpack and Repack!

So we got home from vacation late Saturday and Sunday I had to turn around and pack for a work trip to New York/New Jersey. I grabbed a few cell pics as we were driving around (I was the passenger). The first picture was taken from a meeting I had in an office at the corner of Park and 5th (I think), overlooking Central Park. I missed getting the CP Zoo in the picture where you can see the polar bears on their rocks. Yeah, I wouldn't be too upset with that view everyday!

We Survived The Drive - Time To Party!

Saturday we drove the whole way home in one shot. We were on the road for exactly 16.5 hours. The neighbors were having the annual block party that day so when we got home, we promptly joined the party! All the guys were in the pool, including Adam, playing a viscous game of volleyball.
