Early in October the
local apple orchard had a Harvest Festival, with apple picking
, pumpkin picking,
a corn maze,
hay rack rides, food and music.
U-pick apples were red delicious and golden delicious.
The boys picked over 20 pounds.
And believe me we used them all up.
We made apple pie, apple crisp, 2 1/2 jars of apple sauce. Plus we ate apples for weeks as snacks and with lunch. It was an activity I was not only glad we did, but one I would have liked to repeat. Spending the day at the orchard reminded me why I love my boys. I love their curiosity, their energy, and their smiles.
Quick note: More pictures are on our
Picasa web-page. I know this post is short but the pictures are so much better than any words I could write.
