vacation files: berry pickin'

Ok, I think this is the next to last photo diary of our Oregon vacation adventures... 
I just had SO. MUCH. FUN. it can't even be contained in 1 much less 5 posts!
I had never been berry/fruit picking, and apparently this is big business in Oregon... and Ty and his family just had to show me how it was done... sign me up!
Love me cute, furry peach bottoms!

The best thing about berry/fruit picking... you can eat what you pick while you go... whaaaa!? Sun ripened peaches fresh off the tree do. not. compare to store bought versions... don't even try
The triple crown berry: a combination of blackberry + raspberry + the locally grown, marion berries... zesty, tangy and oh so delish!
My contribution to the blueberry picking... later devoured over homemade vanilla ice cream
I love "baby" anything... and baby berries are right up there!
Our harvest... it didn't last long as it sat in the backseat next to me on the way home
We didn't get to pick these, but they were such cuties!
So far I have shown you how I caught my own lunch, and now picking my own dessert...
 vacation was quite the wonderful adventure!

  9. This is the best! My papa used to grow strawberries and blackberries when I was a little girl and I always helped him pick them. I still remember how good they tasted! Nothing better than straight from the vine or tree! Those peaches look divine!

  11. Beautiful pictures! Looks like an amazing time. I have one of those plastic cups of diced peaches in syrup for lunch today and now I'm feeling very inadequate.

  12. Jessica you are adorable, and this looks like a great date! I love berry picking if I ever get the chance (like...illegally off a bush in someone's yard) but if I did this I don't think I would make it home with anything, I love berries too much! Esp. blueberries and those hybrid berries are awesome too! I've never seen those before!
