Apples Apples Everywhere

 We went apple picking! And have been eating apple ever since. We picked them down low, we picked them up high- and we ate them (a lot of them).

 We went with some dear friends of ours the Niccodemmi's - They have a name similar to Aunt Ami's- you just start doubling letters and you just - can't - stop.

Don't worry- we took Jimmy too this time.

 We picked a TON of apples and I have so far made Apple Pie (plus two pies worth of filling in the freezer) Apple Sauce (3 made, 1 1/2 left) And I just bought some pork since I hear pork and apples go well together. (any recipes are welcome)

Apple Picking

We went apple picking with Grandma and Grandpa Bill today. It was the first time picking anything for our little family. We drove and drove and drove some more but in the end it was all worth it to spend some time together, without phones ringing or places to be later. I can honestly say this was the most relaxed we all have been lately.

Nick loved being able to run around wherever he pleased. And surprisingly he did not try to climb any of the trees.

Claire also enjoyed the freedoms of the 'country' and the many apples, I think in total today she ate about 4 apples herself.

Good times were had by all.
