Week 2, 3 and 4





Wow since I am so far behind in my blogging I'm going to sum up the rest of our summer trip to NY in one post (mostly pictures since it's been so long I don't even remember everything)

We went blueberry picking several times which the kids thoroughly enjoyed...I had a hard time getting Hannah to eat while we were there but she never turned down a blueberry, I swear most of the time we were there her main source of nutrition was nursing and blueberries.





My mom and I did some canning which was fun, I remember my mom doing this when I was younger but I hadn't done too much of it myself. We made jam (blueberry, peach and blackberry), salsa and pickles. I have to say the salsa was by far the best salsa I have ever had, EJ loves the salsa at certain mexican restaurants and he thought it was just as good if not better! We brought back 3 jars and we already went through 2 of them.
Delicious blueberry jam!


With Uncle Eric on his birthday!!




Other things we did:
  • Family reunion for my Dad's side of the family (I believe those pictures are on my brother's camera)
  • Uncle Eric's Birthday
  • Cousins graduation party
  • Sew (more like my mom sewed and I tried to keep the kids away)



Roasting marshmallows with Mommy at his first bonfire!
