Apple Picking

We went apple picking today. It is that time of year, and Alexa has been asking to go since about June. She has been counting down all week for today to come. The kids love the animals at the farm and the tractor ride out to the orchard.

It was a cloudy cool day, but the rain held off.

We ended up with 18 pounds of apples. This now means I will be searching around for creative apple recipes.

Alexa's big motivation in wanting apples though was for pie. So we took care of making that as soon as we got home.
