apple picking

(he's hugging me)

So, living up here in the frozen tundra (sorry, to those friends of mine that live in Canada... I couldn't imagine!). We try to take advantage of our fall days as much as possible.

Last sunday, we all woke up from naps... it wasn't raining... it was quite warm... so we loaded up and drove to our favorite apple orchard!!!

We picked a huge bags of apples, tasted as many apples as we could, and ate 1/2 a dozen apple donuts as fast as we could (hoping that we wouldn't have to pay for them if they were gone by the time we got to the register :)

My back was about done with the hefty one riding on it for an hour... yikes!

(thanks to uncle mike for showing me how to make 'funny faces')

(he holds the peels in his mouth for a really, really long time... my back was pretty juicy by the time we were done too)
