Blackberries

Today, we skipped church to hang out. We picked our brains to figure out what we could do and Jim came up with blackberries. We piled in the car pretty quickly and headed down to see Aunt Brenda. She and her husband have a blackberry farm and winery. I'd never been. It was fantastic.

We all got to ride on the golf carts, pick berries and just hang out. Such a nice way to spend the day. Maddy rode on Jim's shoulders carrying a bucket. Every time Jim would drop a blackberry into her bucket, she'd pick it up almost immediately and eat it up. She was covered in juice quickly.

Reagan would pick berries for a while, but then go back into the store and hang out with Brenda and Jimmy. She got to eat popsicles and chill out. Anytime there was an opportunity to get into the gold cart, she was all over it. She wanted to do anything to climb and drive. She had a great time.

By the time we left, the girls were tired. Maddy fell asleep on the way home and then took another nap. I had to lay down for a bit because of my bee-bo. Reagan chilled out watching Bugs Bunny for a bit before ramping up for the evening again.

Awesome day to reconnect!
