This is our first year doing things as a family, really. Last year Danica was too little to really do much. And I was beyond excited for the falltime activities, including APPLE PICKING! We found a place nearby that sounded great, and took last Sunday for family day. And it was amazing! We picked 13 POUNDS of apples. Danica had a blast.
I was surprised there were any apples left on the trees but we had a good selection of McIntosh
They had a great old-fashioned swing I loved! There was also a newer swingset too
The apples taste great too! But nothing was better than spending the day with the family creating a new tradition :) And they have the best donuts I have ever tasted. Apple Cider, homemade on the premises.To give you a hint on how great the pricing was, we left there with a GALLON of their apple cider (with their apples in it) 13 POUNDS of apples, a Dozen homemade donuts and a little punkin for Danica. All said and done we spent less than $30! MMM! Now for the pies, Crisps, and Memere's homemade applesauce...
So fall is kinda sorta here. We're having major issues with Jeans. All Jeans. Skinny Jeans, Big jeans, little jeans. Adjustable Jeans. I just cannot get them to fit right! Every one of them only comes to about halfway up her diaper and gaps. I think it's a Rise problem and not a size problem. UGH! I love Jeans and I am heartbroken that the jeans I (mistakenly) bought and washed will not fit her. BUT! Good news is we hit up a bunch of Labor Day sales, scored some great deals, and I have some cute new Babylegs :)We went on a nice walk and spent some time exploring our little field. So here are some fun "First days of Fall" pictures from this past weekend :)
Well, after a bout of September-y weather the thermometer jumped back up to 100* but before it did, we had time to go out in the backyard and inspect nature. D loves anything to do with nature, leaves, grass, wind, etc. I also realized how great she looks in Sepia :)
