This little guy is always up for an adventure. I swear that huge grin didn't leave his face the entire time we were there.
The big boys didn't waste any time and got right to the task at hand. Max must have eaten at least four peaches while we were in the orchard. In every picture I have of him picking there is a half eaten peach in his other hand.
Will got it too. He was great about gently placing his goods into the basket. Jack finally got the hang of picking the fruit, but also thought that tossing them into his bucket was a good idea. I must have told him to be gentle at least 20 times.
Jack was also completely smitten with all the little bugs he found. He would see a fly and go on and on about it being so cute!
It won't be long before Max is taller than Nonna. He reaches her shoulder now, but she thinks he will be up to her chin by next spring. I can't get over how grown up he seems lately. Sigh.
Before we knew it we were the proud owners of 28 lbs of fresh peaches and it was time to board the tractor for the ride back. The two big boys were able to secure seats int he coveted top area and they looked so cute watching the tractor driver.
Another wonderful family adventure in the books. It truly is a wonderful life!
