Apple Picking

Today we took the kids apple picking for the first time. A friend of mine from MOPS has an apple farm and they were having their annual Family Fun Day. Isaac and Grace sampled tiny "baby" apples even before we went up to pick them.










We saw animals that the 4-H group had brought for a mini petting zoo.










Then we met up with our friends to pick the apples. We took a wagon ride through the orchard where they brought us to the area where we could pick from.









When we got there they had an apple crate maze for the kids to run through and also a real tractor that they could play on.









The weather was just beautiful... which made the day even more enjoyable. Isaac and Grace loved being able to just go up to the tree and pick which ever apple they wanted.










Grace ate her 2nd apple of the day right off of the tree... she was thrilled! It was a fun morning together. Now I have to figure out what to do with all the apples we brought home! :)
