Harvest


The girls and I passed the warm afternoon by picking fruit from our citrus trees. Our original intentions were for lemons, but we noticed the mandarin oranges were ready to be harvested as well. What a fabulous surprise! This is the first year the tree has produced edible oranges and they are more than edible this year - they are delicious.

Those girls faces are even brighter than the fruit they picked. What a fun California-y way to spend your afternoon.
