Peaches are best when you pick them yourself

All of this happened a few weeks ago, actually. Ruby is very squirmy, so I was amazed when the whole wagon ride worked out. Ruby didn't actually have enough hand and arm strength to pull the peach off the tree, so what I ended up doing was picking the peach and then holding it near where it originally was attached, and Ruby picked it from my hand. We also picked blackberries at the same farm, and Theo was very good about picking only the black ones. Afterwards we went to the park, where we ate a nice lunch that include freshly picked peaches. The picture that you see is Ruby finding her dad (or was it me? I can't remember) hiding underneath one of the jungle gym climbing wall thingies.
