Blueberries and Carnival Rides

Pete, boys and myself, along with Sara and kids, got together on a nice sunny sunday to pick blueberries out in Snohomish. Last year I discovered this u-pick blueberry farm and loved it! For this trip, we went on opening day. The kids had a blast. Kristjan ate more blueberries than he put in his bucket. It's a good thing they don't weigh and charge kids by the pound when you're done picking! Once we were done and paid for our blueberries, we headed down the road a bit to a mini carnival that was in town (I forget the name of the event, but Sara said they do this every year). The kids went on some rides. We shared some curly fries (way overpriced and took way to long to get our order), and Sara bought the kids a sno-cone. Towards the end, Pete bough a bag of cotton candy-all four kids were in heaven and were wired from the sugar by the time we left. After the carnival we took a little drive further in to Snohomish (i forget the name of the actual town we ended up in). There was a car show going on in the "old" section of this town. So we walked a bit looking at the cars and a few of the shops. Pete found a stand selling deep-fried snickers bars-I don't recommend you try that! All in all, it was great day and we finished off the evening with an awesome bbq!!!
