One of our favorite family activities is to go fruit picking. We're lucky to have many farms near by to enjoy the short season picking their bounty. We decided to try a new farm that was harvesting peaches/plums, raspberries and blueberries. The peaches were a bit hard and so downy that they reminded me of Gabriel's hair when he was born.
The kids just love finding the juiciest fruit.
Gabriel loved eating the peaches and plums. He can take an entire plum and eat the whole thing, leaving a perfectly cleaned pit that he tosses onto the floor. It also helps that the fruit resemble balls, as he loves to hold anything round.
We were also able to cut fresh flowers. Maddie was very excited about this.
But, the best part of this farm was the blueberries. They were perfect. Nathan and the big kids picked a bunch while Gabriel and I watched the goats. Fresh corn with dinner and blueberries for dessert. Yum!
