Well, okay, after about a gazillion years I decided that I could post something on my blog again.
A week or so ago we did some serious huckleberry picking. I went four times! It was really very fun, and we got a bunch of berries, which taste amazing! The last two times we went we found some awesome bushes! Amberlee came with us the first and last time we were up there. She is such a good picker! Her little hands are proof of that! Every time she picked berries that were really big she made sure she showed all of us :) She has such a cute imagination and mind and she filled all of the would be silent moments with questions, comments, and observations. Autumn went with us the first time we were up there and she did a great job too! We told her that we should probably carry her so she would not get hurt while we were up there but she very adamantly said "I AM NOT SCARED!" And she certainly wasn't. She scampered up and down those hills and through bushes that were almost as tall as she was without a bit of complaint. Whenever she fell she just got back up and continued her search for the huckleberries.


That white bucket is only one of three that we got that day!


Amberlee is a true huckleberry picker!





My friend Ashley is having a baby girl, so I made her a few little bows for her baby shower. They were really fun to make. I have never made hair clips before, but I thought they turned out pretty cute!





This is just a pretty rose that I cut from my rosebush. It smelled so good and was beautiful.
