Apple Hill

I LOVE this time of year. Fall and Spring are my FAVORITE seasons and the best time to be out and about.

A favorite seasonal activity of ours is visiting Apple Hill. I have been going up there since I was a little girl. We took the kids last year and they LOVED it. We drove up on Friday with my Aunt Paula, cousin Carlie and her friend, Sarah. It is so BEEEAUTIFUL up there. With the leaves changing color, crisp air, ripe apples, pumpkins, farm animals and warm apple pie, we enjoyed our perfect Fall afternoon.

I was in picture taking HEAVEN....

Russell man, never found a stick he didn't like...

Libby, Molly, Me and Earl (the monkey)
-Libby hasn't left home without Earl since she was 18 months old

"Sure Libs, go right ahead....don't mind me...."

The kids got a kick out of watching Carlie and Sarah on this ride!

Molly and Me, such a mama's girl!

The kids went CRAZY when they saw the pony rides! As they proudly trotted around, we could not stop laughing. They were so darn cute with each other!

Libby-"Russ, your horsey is SOoooo handsome!!"
Ally- "Oh Libby, your horse has blond hair just like yours!?!"
Molly-"Ally, what did you name yours, princess Belle?"
Russ- "Molly, is your horse the fastest?"

After riding the ponies it was time for MY favorite part, apple shopping. There is NOTHING like an apple from Apple Hill! Yummy!!!!!! The kids loved picking out their own tasty treat.

Yummmmy!

My attempt at a quad photo! LOL.. ya, I tried!

Not long after this photo we wrapped up our goodies and tired peeps. As the day came to an end we headed back down the hill, chomping on our apples and recounting our wonderful day. Thank you so much for the great memories Paula, Carlie and Sarah! We love you!

Have a great week everyone! We'll be off on another new adventure soon!
