Saturday morning was spent laying sod in the backyard,
which then led to a bike ride,
which then led us to a fruit pick at a nearby orchard.
(btw: We had no time to brush hair or pick decent clothes.)
The girls had a blast picking grapefruits and oranges.
We really only went to give the girls the experience
of picking their own fruit,
but now we wish we had picked bags and bags
because the oranges are the best we've ever tasted.
I always brag about the perks of having a tall husband
and this activity added to the list.
Eric would just lift the girls up,
tell them to grab onto a piece of fruit
and then pull them and the fruit down out of the tree.
Within 10 minutes of coming home,
I had peeled 5 oranges
and everyone was covered in orange juice.
Yummy!!

Picking oranges and grapefruits- seriously you live in paradise. We get to pick blueberries and apples. Not so tropical- but still very yummy. Love the pics of the beach- I am sure that Dad had a blast. That man will enjoy water wherever and whenever. Hope to see you at Powell!
Mmmmm. Fresh from the tree oranges sound SO good to the pregnant girl right now! Too bad I'm in Utah. :(
