Apple, peach, and blackberry picking

On Saturday we took the kids to Eckerts to go apple, peach, and blackberry picking. It was a great day considering we almost had to cancel because it was supposed to rain all day.
Our first trip was the apple picking. Here is the kids on the wagon ready to go.

Andrew trying out one of the apples to make sure they were good.
Joey taking a break from eating his apple to pick one.
Next we headed out to do some peach picking. Since it was close to the end of peach season there wasn't a lot to choose from.
Adriana walking the rows to find the perfect tree to pick from.
Joey, of course, doing more eating than picking (They should probably weigh him when we come in and again when we come out to see how much he actually eats!)
Most of the good peaches were up high on the trees, so the girls came up with their own plan to pick them.Finally we came to blackberry picking. And just a side note that blackberries do stain very bad!!!!
Adriana picking some blackberries.Adriana running up the aisle as it started to sprinkle on us.Andrew also heading out before the rain.And, of course, Joey eating some blackberries. There really isn't much this boy doesn't eat!This is my very favorite picture of Andrew while blackberry picking.
And the five kids showing off their loot of goods!And we can't forget the picture with the pumpkinator!





Thank you for another great time Eckerts! We can't wait to come back again next year!
