Peach Pickin!

Gavin, Noah, Autumn and I went peach picking with a friend and her son. We went to the Church's orchard. The peaches were as big as soft balls. The peaches were so fun to eat and so delicious. The kids had a great time until the peach fuzz got on their arms and they started itching, then it wasn't so fun anymore.

Autumn loved eating peach. To me this is what summer is all about. The juice would drip down her elbows!!
Noah with his bucket of peaches that he picked. He would fill up his bucket so happily.
Look how big the peaches were this one is almost as big as Gavin's head. Gavin with his proud peach pick!! Here is Noah loading up the box!!
Reach!! Good thing my friend April was tall, I would grab the branch and hang on it and then April would pick the peaches. We picked over a bushel for our family. Then Dave and I processed them and canned them and froze them. It took a long time but it was worth it now we have peaches to last us the whole winter.

Here's Dave and Gavin with the peaches we put up. Dave is holding the frozen tray of peaches that we'll use for smoothies. We froze most of them in freezer bags and then added fruit fresh and juice to the bag.
