I Like Apple Picking!

We took the kids apple picking yesterday. It was such a beautiful fall day to go. We go every year~but our weekends have been very busy since September started and I was in a panic that this year we wouldn't be able to fit it in. To add to it~tomorrow is Sean's birthday and we always allow the birthday child to pick an activity that we can do on their birthday. He did not pick apple picking, so rush we did today after getting flu shots and getting in two soccer games.

We did it~by the skin of our teeth~we drove over an hour because most places were picked clean~to apple pick for about a half hour. Although we were rushed because we got there very late, it was worth it though because Audrey walked around the apple trees, following behind me, saying "I like apple picking, mommy" over and over. They all had a lot of fun~although I noticed Patrick became bored a bit quickly (too old for this family tradition??? I hope not.). The twins were really into it and it was so easy with them this year~as I'm finding most activities are now.

We also chose pumpkins~a little disappointing that the place we went too this year didn't have a pumpkin patch. The kids were excited all the same.

We had a great time and I'm glad we fit it in, even with all the rushing.
