Apple Picking!!

This weekend was the annual apple picking outing with our friends (although last year got rained out). It was a beautiful day. The kids loved it, we did miss the Ryan family this year! They have lots of great things for the kids to do: see the animals, ride the little tractors, have cider donuts and other yummy treats, go in the hay maze and jump on the hay stack and oh yeah..there was the apple picking part too!! Luke really got into it this year and was able to pick the apples himself...after some coaching not to take the apples from the ground. Next year we'll work on not "throwing" them in the bag. All in all, a great day!!!
