we were invited to come pick apples at diana and lee's house.
micah is annie's buddy at school and church.
talby was loving this assignment.
(one of the best inventions ever made)
diana and i cut them and put them in tupperware.
she whipped up a quick apple crisp for munching.
craig ran out to get carmel.
it was such a fun yummy afternoon.
sean really enjoyed using the apple picker they had.
well…i have a recipe for YOU.
go to the store and get some apples.
find a bunch of sticks and put the apples on them.
get some carmel and put it over the apple…
BOOM you've got carmel apples!
he just cracks me up.
i had never seen that before.
they pretended it was a boat in a storm….loved to see them imagine.
connie friesen - megan, i’m addicted to your blog. i’m lynette in utah’s sister. she turned me on to your blog. remember how we made the corsages at jenna’s wedding together? i wish i knew how to blog like you do. i miss coming to the arts and crafts fair with lynette in hillsboro.
traci - what a wonderful day. the perfect fall activity. sean is the typical guy – gotta be using a tool. great photos meg!!
Steph @ Problem Solvin Mom - What a fabulous time!! We have apple pickers like that, way cool and much better than getting on a ladder. Sean is too cute, both in pictures and in print – love his recipe!
Gabrielle - what a nice fall memory for your family.
DebC - Great photos, thanks for sharing.
robin bird - another great photo story! i like the first photo, the way annie is looking on and then the other one where she look so intent almost taking notes, waiting her turn to apple bob, like “now how do you do that without drowning?”
xo
Suzanne - i may have more fall decorations at my house, but YOU my friend, take the cake w/the actual fall activities! my family & I will live vicariously through you:)
Jen - perfect fall post!
♥Jen
Diana Cornielle - Is that your little boy? (the one in red, in the first photo?) He has beautiful eyes! And the rest of the pictures are great, I could see how much fun it was through them. Nice.
Lorilee - My 4-year-olds at school LOVE my apple/corer/peeler! I sure wish I could have joined in on your day!
Blessings,
Lorilee
mallory Heffronm - Those are some great pictures… I love the last one
Deb - Oh! How. Much. Fun!
jesse - That looks like such a fun day!
carissa - now that is way cool!
my girles LOVE apples… to be able to pick em off the tree… TOO COOL!
Rachel - Ok’ where are the apple picking farms in Florida…or people who have apple trees…I am living through your photos…looked relaxing and so much fun! thanks for sharing!
Lee Ann - oh I love fall….and I love crisp apples! My Anna has Annie’s butterfly skirt and the sparkly pink Target shoes. The way they dress…..they could be sisters.
mom - Met this is so funny. We went to the Lewis for dinner before the arts and crafts fair. They were having the Big Squeeze (where they make gallons of apple cider) the weekend of arts and crafts. So she invited me to come out and pick apples. I did just this last week and got to use one of those pickers. I have made 8 pints of apple butter in the crock pot. It’s really good. Call me if you want the recipe.
Looks like everyone had a great time.
It’s great to have friends like these.
Nancy - Looks like a great day! Ours was similar…friends have an annual cider squeeze. They’ve re-furbished an antique cider press and invite a large group over for the event each year. The cider is so good that it’s addictive but you can’t have too much or you’ll spend your evening in the bathroom (or so I hear). And I wasn’t even thinking when I went to it as I left my camera at home and missed a prime opportunity for blogging.
PamperingBeki - Awww, that looks like so much fun!!
I *just* woke up today thinking I wish I knew a place to take my kids apple picking. Haha!
