Apple Picking with Emily

Pepere and I started a tradition of taking Emily apple picking.  We all look forward to it - it's always been one of my favorite activities to do with kids.   We were excited to take her again this year.

Her favorite thing is the hay wagon ride......so we did it three times!

 

After the first time, we picked our bag of apples

 

 

It's always good to eat one as you pick

 

So many apples to choose from!

And what do you do when you have too many that won't fit into the bag?

 

 

 



 

Pepere teaches you how to store them in your pockets!

 

After the apple picking, it was time for another wagon ride

 



Then it's Memere's favorite part - snack time!

 

You just have to have those apple cider donuts, fresh out of the grease!

 

 

Emily chose popcorn......she didn't want the donuts.  (Are we sure she's MY granddaughter?)

 

After one more wagon ride, we picked pumpkins. 

 

 

 

 Pepere was very sad that he didn't get a single pumpkin out of his garden.  We chose three from the farm for our front porch. 

 

Emily felt so bad about Pepere's pumpkin patch, she made him a picture of it.
