apple pickin' 2014

I enjoy apple picking every fall, but our normal spot has become so touristy and busy that it just takes the fun out of it for me.  I had decided we'd just skip apple picking this year.  Of course, we all wanted to go, so we found a new spot and it did not disappoint!
 
 
It was an overcast day, following a weekend of rain, but we still had a great time.

 
Emmy enjoyed the puddles left behind from the rain.

 
There were tons of apples at the kids' level. 

 
They were picking granny smith and Fuji.  Those are the only kinds we like so it worked out perfectly they had both.

 
There may have been plenty of low apples, but it's still fun to pick from the top.

 
My sweet boy!

Nana and her babies.

 
We can say we go apple picking for the apples, but the real reason is the treat afterwards, ha!

 
We were concerned they wouldn't have our favorite apple cider donuts like the other orchard, but they did!  They even had dundaes (donut sundaes).

 
We invited Nana and Pap along for the trip and we all had a great time.

These are great pictures, even for a rainy day. But, you have always had a way with photography!

I am glad you guys found a great apple spot and enjoyed your family day together.
