Blueberries!!

Yesterday one of the families in the ward (the Savages) invited us to go blueberry picking. (The dad, Sasha, also happens to be one of Matt's attendings--so he went berry picking with his boss) We came home with more than 5lbs of berries. I'm not sure what we'll do with them all--it's a lot of blueberries for two people to eat. The Savages left with 35lbs. Last week they took home 45lbs and ate enough that they needed more yesterday. (They do have six kids, but I'm watching for them to turn blue like Violet in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. ) Here's Jack holding our bucket of berries. Don't ask why he's buckled into a seatbelt, it just seemed like the right thing to do at the time. Jack really liked to try to grab the bushes--he didn't last long in the moby wrap (baby carrier) and spent most of the time on a blanket under the bushes.

We also took a drive up to Lake Wixom. Matt got to go boating with the other interns on a "team building day" and this is where they went. It's only about 20 minutes from us. One of Matt's classmates has a boat and he promised he'd take us skiing soon--the water sure looked glassy just before dusk!
Jack's latest trick is to sit up by himself. He can't get there on his own, but his balance is getting pretty good. His other new trick is screaming at people in public when they aren't looking at him and telling him that he's cute. (This personality trait could be trouble in a few years maybe;-)
