Blackberries and Peaches

While cooped up in the OR one day, Ryan heard some people talking about having been to an orchard down towards Galveston where you can pick your own blackberries. When he told me we decided to make it our first big adventure after getting our Daddy back from the land of ginormous anesthesia papers. This afternoon we headed down to Galveston and spent some time at the beach and then drove back up to Fruits n' Such Orchard. The evening had cooled off perfectly and the orchards and gardens were beautiful. Kate had been excited all day and enjoyed every minute of it. Sawyer was so cute. He started out by picking the red ones but eventually learned to go for the big juicy purple ones. He got into a fight with a big blackberry branch and ended up with scratches all over the side of his face and ear, poor kid. He was so cautious after that and it was adorable to see him be so careful. We ended up with a delicious haul. When we got home we found some of our peaches had split open in transit and we had to eat them up. They were delicious. Seriously, best peaches EVER!
