A Day in Our Orchard!

Here are some photos that I took in our orchard. When we bought the house the only part that really did not change was a small corner of the backyard that we call our orchard. It has 2 orange trees, a peach tree (that the birds apparently LOVE to eat), a grapefruit tree, tangerine, and an apple. With all of these trees, it is a pretty cool (as in temperature, it is at least 5 degrees cooler than the rest of the yard!) place to play, and lots of fun things to do! Haylee loves to pick the peaches with me and they both love to eat them.

Addilyn eating a peach!!! Yummy.

Haylee just being so cute.

Yes, those are real apples from my tree!

Addie by the new trees in the front yard. Yes, house photos are coming soon. Stay tuned!

Ha I love the picture of Addie and the peach. Terrific, just terrific. And Ju, you are living your dream! Fruit trees? Now all you need is a cherry one...

If you can grow fruit in Mesa...maybe that means I can grow fruit in my desert? :)

I love that you can spend the afternoon in your orchard. That just sounds cool.

No apple pies yet, they are still too green! Haylee and her little friend were out there yesterday and they both came in with dolls in one hand, and an apple in the other. It was so fun!!
When they are ripe Allison, I will bring you some!!!
