Apple picking....

Visiting the apple orchard is big out here. So, when Aunt Rebecca was into we made the trip. What is the saying "when in Rome..." It was a bit chilly out but we had a great time. Quint loved picking the apples and carrying them in his bucket, and Russell loved to eat them. It worked out great. Don't know if I could have done it alone, it was awesome having Aunt Rebecca there to share the memory and help me make sure I didn't lose one:)
It wasn't a big sign....and just a little one way dirt road.
There is so much to love about our state:)

Look Apples!
Russell is a walker...thank goodness, it was a hike to the good apples

He shares my love!

I love sunglasses...specifically big sunglasses:) It brings me so much joy to think Russell might share my love. Even if he outgrows it, he looks so cute now!
