Last Day

This was the last day that the boys would be home for a while so I decided to get all the work out of them that I could. I mean, we needed to go and spend time together and pick some blueberries. ; ) We had such a good time and ended up with enough blueberries to last for several months. (that is quite a bit for our family!) I think that Gabe, Abby, Jacob, and Matthew ate more than they put in any bucket.




Parker was our photographer for the day. We had all sorts of pictures taken!




I turned around once and Matthew was chewing on the branches trying to get more berries.





Sharing secrets.














Everybody had to try their skills at the jungle gym.

Joseph He has gotten so tall that his head was dragging the ground!










This was Jacob by the end of the day. Blueberry picking is exhausting work!


Funny happenings:

Joseph heard once or twice that he was, "not the charge of this blueberry patch."

The boys concluded that even though we were the largest family there at that time, we were probably the most well behaved.

It is NOT a good idea to let the baby eat as many blueberries as he wants even though they are good for him. The resulting diaper later that night will be blue.

Several things made me laugh from this post:
1)Joseph hanging upside down with his head touching the ground
2)blueberry diaper. : )
3) You're not in charge of this blueberry patch! (don't know how many time I said things along those lines to my older brother ; )

I also think it's funny that you guys were the biggest yet best behaved family there. I come from a family of 7 kids and people always said the same about us! Now if only I could get my 2 children to behave as well as your 7!
