Blueberries

Nyla's dollies ready for bed.


Bohdin missed a soccer practice the week he was sick. On Thursday I asked the coach if Nyla could take the make up session instead of Bohdin since we would busy on Saturday. On Friday they just have little kids and Saturday was the last day of the current session. The coach agreed and Nyla was so excited. She has been asking to play soccer for a long time. The coach invited Bohdin to play with the three year olds also. Nyla had a lot of fun. I thought she looked so cute out there because she was so enthusiastic. We may do soccer for her in the fall. Or if not soccer then something else. They created a special July session for Bohdin's age but Bohdin wanted to take a break.






Saturday morning we intended to wake up early to go blueberry picking. We didn't leave as early as we originally thought. I did wake Bohdin and Nyla up early but we arrived at 9am instead of the 7:30 we were shooting for. The place was packed and we had to hunt for blueberries. Bohdin did a great job picking while Nyla picked a few but then just ate them. We came away with just under 10 pounds of blueberries. The day we go blueberry picking is the day of the year that the kids eat more fresh blueberries than the whole rest of the year combined. They sat on the counter all day yesterday and I don't think Bohdin or Nyla ate one.





Our next door neighbors had family over on Saturday including their 3 year old great granddaughter. Nyla was excited and wanted to play with her so we invited her over. They ended up playing for hours. The little girl cried when it was time to leave. Nyla was asking about her yesterday. I hope we see a lot more of them this summer. They seemed to hit it off quite well. While Nyla was playing, Bohdin was listening to an audio book. He has spent most of the weekend listening to books.

Only one baby chick remains. We don't know what happened to the other two.
