Peaches

At the peak of peach season, we had the opportunity to go out to Eckert's Orchard over in Illinois and each of the kids could pick a free bag of peaches (Walker included).  It was one of the hottest days of the summer, but we didn't let that stop us.

Our friend Noah didn't waste any time savoring the sweet rewards of his labor
After some lunch, we [thoroughly] enjoyed some ice cream before we got back in the van to head home. 




We came home with over 17 pounds of free peaches!  Look at that loot!!!  And all it cost was a whole LOT of sweat and one incidence of Miriam stripping off her dress and running around throwing a fit in her underwear and shoes in front of a bunch of strangers.  A small price to pay... :)
