Linvilla Orchard Peach Festival

Hi! *awkwardly laughs*  Let's just blame my total disregard for my blogging goals on our binge watching of Game of Thrones and move on. Or we could be real and blame it on me being on the struggle bus and completely melting down warranting my mom coming up to save me. Or both. Anyway, here I am, still in one piece and doing much better.

Lu turned two! The week before we went to the library and just in time for the weekend we got violently ill. So our celebration was pretty tame. She helped make funfetti cupcakes early in the morning and we went to the aquarium. Then we ate at Shake Shack since she lives for their cheese fries.

I teased about a blog post when we went to Linvilla Orchard's Peach Festival. I am still kind of laughing about the expectation vs the reality of picking fruit. I think it took us about 10 minutes to pick 10 pounds of peaches. In my mind it was going to take longer, but the day was hotter than anticipated so it wasn't a letdown. The kids enjoyed it and an orchard definitely meets the family outing requirement of room to run. Overall it was fun and the peaches were delicious, but picking fruit that can be super squishy has been put to the top of my list of things I don't really want to do again.
