Just Peachy

Evan making his way up the peach tree.

Eliana tries one of the peaches right off the tree. They weren't crazy about the skin, but they sure were sweet inside!

Look at Eliana's face in this photo. I zoomed in on it below...

Now that's the face of sheer determination as she tries to climb up the tree.

Highland Orchards

Getting back to the day we went to Highland Orchards. It really was a fun day, although extremely humid and buggy. Picking blueberries and blackberries right off of the bush was a first for all of us.
I think it was great for the kids to see where their fruits and veggies come from. After a little picnic, and some fun feeding the goats, we drove up to pick peaches off the tree. Evan loved climbing up the tree and plucking out peaches. It was easy for him since the branches were so low.

Only the dark ones are ripe for picking...
