Apple Picking

What a great day!

Today we went to Linvilla Orchards and had a blast! We went specifically today because it is opening day for Honeycrisp apples...the absolute best apples in the world! And we were not disappointed...we picked a half bushel of these beauties and then headed over to the peach orchard to finish our bushel. The peaches were excellent too. I'm thankful they don't weigh the pickers before and after...we definitely enjoyed a snack while picking!

After our time in the orchard, we headed to the playground. The girls had a blast running around, being crazy, and conquering the maze! We enjoyed our picnic lunch and then walked around checking out the animals. The girls even got to feed some of the deer...apples, of course :) We saw all different kinds of chickens, some goats, and some emus too.

Then we headed over to the market. Steve got some hotsauce...poor guy's been out for a while...he's happy now!

All in all, it was a wonderful day! Here are some pictures for you to enjoy~
