Our Very Own Orange Harvest

We have four citrus trees in our garden. We had thought they were all lemon trees, but when the fruit recently turned orange on two of the trees we realized we had assumed wrong!

Yesterday we harvested our oranges. Sarah and Job were really enthusiastic about the task!

Our harvest! We had two types – sweet juice oranges and small mandarins. We made juice out of the big ones and ate the littler ones for dessert with our evening meal.

And I do promise that one day (hopefully soon) I will post more pictures of our new home and garden. We are loving the outdoor space and our cozy little home!

Looks like the kids are having a good time picking the oranges in your back yard. The grass looks nice and green, too. Thanks for sharing.
