A Blackberry Morning

We are having some beautiful weather for our fourth of July! This morning we drove out to "The Orchard" in Cross Plains. We filled baskets full of great big, juicy blackberries!
As usual Mia was a great helper. Ty says that children make the best berry pickers because their little fingers don't squish the berries.
It was nice and breezy while we were there. It was a perfect outside kind of morning.
I ended up buying some fresh peaches from the farm as well. Now we are thoroughly stocked and I can make pies and smoothies, and toppings for waffles! Before leaving Cross Plains we stopped at a fireworks outlet store and bought some sparklers and little things for the kids. We are looking forward to sundown!
