Blessings from the sweet Arizona sunshine


These delectable treats made their way from an Arizona backyard to our table in Wisconsin.  Each year we receive a huge box of fresh oranges and grapefruits from our married daughter Juli's in-laws~The Mckendrick family.  We are delighted in knowing that many hands picked these fruits and it makes us feel closer to our loved ones far away.  The Mckendricks are parents of 16 children plus 2 foster children!!  Thanks Chris, Kelly, and all the Mini-Mckendricks! We greatly appreciate them!

What beautiful citrus. We have them in abundance down here in florida and just went through a huge basketful. I am not very big with eating citrus or drinking oj. I do love me some apples though especially the Mcintosh...yummy!

Hope you are all doing wonderfully this holiday. Haven't made my way to visiting many blogs lately. I do need to make some time. :)
