Blackberries!

We are fortunate enough to live in a new neighborhood that isn't fully developed yet. As a result, there are lots of untouched wild blackberry bushes (among other things). We have a very sweet neighbor, Miss Pat, who picked a bowlfull and shared it with Will and Emma one day. They had the bowl eaten in a matter of minutes. I did manage to take a few pictures of them before their faces were completely black!

After tasting these juicy little berries, Will decided to pick more by himself so that I could make a pie. He did get a lot of berries, but he also ended up with lots of chigger bites (we are guessing that's what they are). So, that ended the berry picking and we never did make that pie!
