Berry picking

Today we went berry picking with friends in Brentwood. It's "a thing" to do in the Bay Area. We picked cherries, blackberries, olallieberries (first time I've heard of these - they were delicious), and logan (?) berries. Unfortunately we went on the hottest day of the year so far.

 The girls liked picking berries the best.

As you can see Roxy sampled some. (Okay, we all did. She was just a bit messier about it.)

There were plenty of low branches for the kids. And we kept the kids far away from the trees that had ladders next to them. 

Roxy didn't pick a single cherry. Not her thing. You do you, babe.

You can't tell since this photo is far away, but the three youngest all have berry stained mouths. :)

Our friends were talking about visiting other farms to pick peaches and strawberries, but I was so hot and done. We left and I took the girls to McDonald's for ice cream and chicken nuggets and air conditioning. Still, it was a good time.
