Apples!

Thank you Mariah for organizing the annual apple-picking excursion this past weekend. The weather was PERFECT: sunny skies, moderate/ seasonable temps, a light breeze, and zero humidity. Ahhh, perfect for picking apples.

I'll let the photos do most of the talking; the trip was worth it, even if Hunter's only nap was the last 30 minutes of our ride home.


Hunter wanted in on the picking action; we had to explain that apples on the ground weren't exactly pick-worthy.

Can you see the hubs in the tree?

Watching Daddy pick apples. Notice who's in the stroller, and who isn't.


Apples taste better when you pick 'em yourselves.

Checking out the flower Leah picked for me. When I told him to sniff it, he leaned in as if he were going to kiss it.

The best part about apple picking? Making an apple pie!

Rolling out the leftover pie crust to make cinnamon chips. After all her help, turns out Leah doesn't like apple pie (but she does enjoy ice cream and cinnamon chips!).

Which orchard, Heather? We're planning our annual trip to one of them soon, too.
