Peaches for me.
We took a trip to Fredericksburg to pick peaches this past weekend and visit with Nana, Keith's mom. It was a beautiful day to be outside. I had planned on being there at 8 when the orchard opened, but that didn't happen. We got there around 10am, we picked I think about 75 pounds of peaches or 1.5 bushels in an hour and a half. It started getting pretty hot around 11, but luckily we were pretty much done at that point.
Nicholas had SO much fun picking the peaches, the trees were just his size. But I did not anticipate his eagerness to pick ALL the peaches he saw, ripe or not. So we had to resort to me telling him which one he could pick, but he was just as happy doing that so it worked out.

Helping daddy. Nicholas didn't get the idea that you couldn't chunk the peaches into the box. We had a few unfortunate accidents

Here is our Peach booty.
Yep, it was hot out.
We finally ended up with about 140 peaches according to daddy's counting
Ooooo and finally the prize, juicy, super sweet totally yummy peaches!
