Apples!!!

Last year, we went apple picking with the Smiths, and we decided that we needed to make it a tradition. We love to go to Sky Top Orchard up in NC, and they are getting busier and busier each year. Yesterday, we got there in the morning around 10, and we spent a good hour or so gathering apples, drinking yummy juice, and eating amazing apple cider donuts. Here are some highlights:

Pretty Fuji apples




"We're ready for some apples...we think!"




"Hmmm...wonder if these are any good?"




Will seems to be enjoying his apple




John's not so sure....he wound up liking it, though!




Eating apples is serious business




"Mom, we didn't know Auntie Em was a monkey! Where's your helmet, Auntie Em??"




Yummy - apple cider donuts!




Will was a sleepy boy - picking apples is hard work!



John's sound asleep too




The boys did very well eating apples on their own - they even seemed to like them, too! We really love our fall traditions. More pix of recent events to come...
