Blackberries Galore!

A few weeks ago we had a family outing to Butler's Orchard. It is only about 15 minutes from where we live and the drive to it is absolutely beautiful. When in season they have apples, blueberries, blackberries, rasberries, strawberries, flowers, etc. They also have a cute country shop with tons of homemade goodies, etc. www.butlersorchard.com Here's some shots of our day...

Aaron is back there somewhere! He took Joshua with him and they found the mother load! They actually had to eat most of what they picked right away because they were so big and juicy that they fell apart right in their hands. :) Let's just say, Aaron was very happy and we came away with about 10 pounds of blackberries!

The flowers were beautiful!

For only $8 you can pick as many flowers as you can jam into one container! Here's Amber holding our pickings! :)
We made 4 vases out of what we gathered.


We're looking forward to our next visit to Butler's Orchard.
