Family Fun at the Blueberry Farm

I've known about the Hillcrest Blueberry Farm for a few years, but we've never been blueberry picking before.  Saturday we loaded up the family and headed about 25 minutes south of Shreveport.  The girls each got their own bucket to fill with 1.5 pounds of blueberries and we were off.  Of course it was hot, but tis the season.  We tromped all over those blueberry fields looking for the ripest, biggest blueberries we could find.  It didn't take long to fill our buckets--especially since Josie couldn't be bothered to stop for a potty break.  I don't even remember the last time Josie had an accident, but in the middle of our picking I looked over at Josie and caught her mid accident.  I asked her why she didn't wait until we get go to a potty, and she calmly said, "Because my bucket isn't full yet."  Luckily we changed clothes and went about our bucket filling business.  When we were done we went inside to cool of with blueberry lemonade.  The best part?  Our family fun activity only cost us the price of the berries--$10.  The other best part--the blueberry pancakes we made for breakfast this morning.  Today is Father's Day....hope all the dads have a great day!  Especially husband who does SO much to take care of us....Love you babe!!
