Peaches, Tomatoes, and Grapes, Oh My!

Looking for something different to do with the kids, I decided to take them to pick grapes. We managed to talk a few of our neighbors into going with us, too. After checking the website, we were excited to find out they had more than just grapes. There were also peaches and tomatoes and even a few farm animals!

Ostrich

Miniature Horse

Me and the kids with the Llama (It's bad when it's easier to get the llama to look at the camera than it is to get 2 of my kids to look!)

Sheep

Little Cow

And the grapes! I typically prefer the red seedless grapes, but these were super sweet and yummy!

So Yummy!

Now checking for ripe tomatoes

Perfect!

Jonathan wanted nothing to do with the tomatoes - so he waited until we were ready to pick peaches.

The peaches at this farm were bigger (and better) than the ones at the last farm we went to

Testing the peaches

Even Matthew wanted to test some for us!

I think he approves!

He stocked up!

I made a fresh peach cobbler using Paula Deen's recipe - DELICIOUS!!!!!

The kids really like picking fruit now - when I told them where we were going, they were so exicted, they couldn't stop talking about it until we got there! I'm thinking about heading back out there and picking more peaches to can, they are so good!
