Blueberry Hunt

Last weekend we went on a blueberry hunt!  We hiked up flattop on a search for the wild blueberries that grow all over the place up there this time of year.  We found a ton of wind, and a ton of moss berries (which may or may not be edible), a little residual snow from last winter, lots of fun, and two blueberries.  I had Madeline in the backpack, gambling that if Chloe got tired I would way rather carry a 1 year old than a 3 year old!  
 I gambled correctly.  Chloe did get tired, and wanted to ride on Andrew's shoulders about half way up.  

 She went up and down, but when there was a chance of finding blueberries you better believe she had enough energy to walk on her own!

 We took a break in a promising blueberry field, but only found fun.  No blueberries to be found.

Silly girls :)


 We tried for some family photos, but never quite got "the shot" :)  Oh well, we had fun trying!



 It was a fun hike, but I think next time we will call it a moss berry scouting hike :)  We did find some awesome blueberries later at Costco :)
