"In our search to obtain relief from the stresses of life, may we earnestly seek ways to simplify our lives. May we comply with the inspired counsel and direction the Lord has given us in the great plan of happiness. May we be worthy to have the companionship of the Holy Ghost and follow the guidance of the Spirit as we navigate this mortal journey. May we prepare ourselves to accomplish the ultimate purpose of this mortal test- to return and live with our Heavenly Father."

blueberries!

Last night we drove an hour to a blueberry farm to pick some berries. We didn't get home till 10:00 but it was so worth it! We picked 9 lbs of blueberries. Carly LOVED it! She was so quiet and concentrated the whole time on picking only the blue ones! She kept saying "Mom! We're on a berry hunt!" Sam loved it, although he got stung by something on his finger. He mostly just had fun carrying the bucket around. I'm not normally a fan of blueberries but they are so good picked right from the bush!!

YUM!
Our blueberries won't be ready for a couple weeks here but this makes me very excited!

So, what are you going to do with all those berries? I just read somewhere that blueberries are some of the most versatile fruits and can be put in a lot of things and you won't know they are there, and they area so good for you!
