This may sound surprising to some of you but I’ve never gone apple or pumpkin picking before. Neither had my mum and sister. It was so time to change that…
Kira, my mum, sister and I all went not only apple but also pumpkin picking today!!! I can’t even describe how much fun we had and how amazing it was to watch Kira. She was so happy and excited. She even made up a “walking in the orchard” song. The only thing wrong with the day was Chris wasn’t with us. He had some work to do that couldn’t be put off. But we took lots of play by-play pictures for him….
Here are a few…
Isn’t she beautiful?
There’s my sista working the apple “grabber”…
That shot may end up on the holiday card this year!!! I love that picture…
I love this one too!!!!
Awesome day, all around.
Now to do some baking.








Looks like fun was had by all! Great pics too, what a gorgeous family!
A trip to the pumpkin patch was always a big favorite with my kids, too! I don’t think we ever went apple picking, but we did a lot of berry picking and then we made jam. Eventually we planted our own blueberry bushes, and never went farm picking again!
Can’t believe you hadn’t been either apple or pumpkin picking before now! When I was a kid we faithfully went to an orchard in NJ, and it was always one of the highlights of fall for me. So glad you had fun. Looks like Kira loved it too!
