3rd Annual Apple Picking Party

Saturday was our 3rd Annual Apple Picking Party! We had fabulous weather! We congregated at our house and feasted upon all things apple and pumpkin! We had pumpkin whoopie pies, apple cheddar soup, apple crisp, apple pumpkin muffins... and the list goes on. Mmm.. fall has the best food! Then we headed off to the orchards.. all of us except Caden, Rob and the Sevins.. the kids had a soccer game (we didn't get the game schedule until after we had already set a date for the party.. glad we didn't switch it to Sunday or we would have got rained on like last year!)

Apple picking was right at Cole's naptime.. so I got to carry Cole a lot.. while Cora was hitching a ride on my back! Whenever I put him down this is what I saw... (see pic below) and heard "up Mommy.. carry" lesson learned.. no apple picking during nap time! After we all got enough apples we went on a hayride... All in all a pleasant afternoon!



Cora LOVED Danielle's apple.. or any apple she could get her little hands on!! She shaved off bits of apple with her bottom teeth and chomped away on them! It was hilarious! And when you'd take the apple away she'd open her mouth waiting for more and pull it towards her!

The apple picking families!

Gavin and Heidi.. I just couldn't resist the excellent color of Gavin's sweatshirt!
