Peach Pickin'

With much anticipation after missing last year's season, we headed out to pick peaches the after the 4th.  It was a first for Troy's parents and for Poppy.  We always go to Marburger Orchard, and they did not disappoint again this year.
Poppy's first fresh peach.  She wouldn't touch it but loved eating it!
 These boys ate their weight in peaches that day.
 One more before hitting the road.  Love Poppy's face!
We ended up with 3/4 of a bushel of peaches, which is well over 100 peaches!  We picked a large box of the variety just coming into season and a smaller box of a variety just finishing up.  You'd think with that many peaches it might be hard to eat them all.  Well, in this house, you'd be wrong.  Every.single.peach was gone within 2 weeks, and we were all sad to see them go.  Can't wait till next year!
