It was fun. We stayed for maybe 30 minutes. We didn't know the team, and the players were really bad. Minor leagues. Not the same as watching the D-backs.
It rained that night and stopped just in time for the game. Awesome weather. For the 4th of July we went to Texas and stayed with my brother Glenn and his family. We had SO MUCH FUN!!! It was such a nice vacation for us! Saturday morning we all went and picked blueberries. Yum!
They were so good!! We ate as much as we picked!
We even had live music while we picked. It was pretty cool, until they started doing kareoke. 30 minutes of the worst singing I've ever heard in my life, everyone was ready to leave! But it was fun making fun.
Emma had the most blueberries picked of everyone.

This is the machine that filters/cleans the blueberries for you.
Us.
And of course, the hayride! The rode us around the farm and let us feed the catfish in their pond. It was so cool to see those ugly fish come up from the water. None of those pictures turned out.
And my nephews had fun making faces for the camera! I had just as much fun taking them!
I didn't even post all of them, if that gives you any idea of how long we amused ourselves with that!!!
We were sad to go, but I'm so glad it's only a 6 1/2 hour drive. We definitely can't wait to go back. Cindy sent us home with a bag of blueberries, which we ate the whole way home, made a pie, and ate in our oatmeal for a few weeks. That was my first time having fresh blueberries. Not counting the fresh mushy ones from the store that cost $$$. It was delicious!
Yes, I made a square pie. Or should I say pie squared? Yes I am a dork. Anyway, turns out I don't have a pie pan. So I made it in a casserole dish that had really tall sides so the crust caved in while it baked. It was delicious!!! First time eating blueberry pie too. Yum!!
People here in Missouri are always giving us eggs. Everyone has chickens and so we usually have 4 dozen eggs at a time. My cousin Liz posted a recipe for angel food cake so I tried it. Not a hard recipe and I never want instant again!!! It's a huge difference. And it's 100x healthier from scratch.
Okay, we had the weirdest looking frog ever hiding out above our door. I'm sad the picture didn't turn out, someday I'm getting a new camera. But it was huge, and it was weird.
And finally, more pictures of my garden. We have the tiniest little watermelon, it's so cute! We have other things growing but the watermelon is my fav.
Full shot. Our corn is doing so good!! I'm so excited to eat it all!!! It comes up to my chin, just to give you an idea on how tall it is.
