Tis the season to pick apples, Part I

In a somewhat spur of the moment fashion, we decided to go apple picking with some friends a few weeks ago.  It was just such a beautiful day we couldn't resist, plus I was excited to check out a new orchard.  Here are the kids striking a very goofy pose in order to demonstrate their excitement of picking apples.
Goofy kid.

Trying to get that loose tooth out!
Humor mom if you love picking apples.
Pausing in the middle of eating apples for a Family in the Orchard shot.
 After we were done picking apples, we headed to the Velvet ice cream factory that was practically around the corner to sample their product and to feed the ducks.
 I scream, you scream, we all want ice cream.
 The factory had this cool mill.
 Ahhh, love.
What a day!  I am really glad that we decided to be fun and to head out on this adventure.  We will have to do this again next year.  Now, stay tuned for our second apple picking adventure.  We really love apples.

I love that orchard. And they have good peaches and strawberries when they're in season too. That's where our strawberry jam came from.
