our take for the day...i knew we were headed to an apple orchard but holy moly -- i was not prepared for THIS!
first the setting was breath taking. to get to the orchard we had to wind our way to the top of a mountain and then to find a venue that caters to children and charges next to nothing; it was like a dream come true. fresh air, friendly faces and trees exploding with apples just waiting to be picked. so that's what we did. we picked, we ate, we ate and we picked. at the end of the day we had oodles of apples, 11 tired kiddos and 4 exhausted mommas.
i can hardly wait for our return trip in 2009. Dad! Are you there? I think you would love this. Maybe you can join us next year.
