ONE YEAR OF BLOGS

The very first blog post on here was when we went to Wagner Farm and that's where we went again today. It has been a year since the first post and as a tribute, I made a video looking back at all the fun we have had in the past year since our first post was written. ENJOY!

Apple Picking 2011


We went apple picking this year!! Last year we waited too long to go and all the apple were already picked before we could get there. We had planned on going to Kuiper's but they only have apple picking on the weekends. So, instead we went to a place called Pine Apple Farms. Clever name...they sell apples during the fall and Christmas Trees in the Winter. It is not a  huge farm by any means, maybe an acre of apple and another 3 of trees. It s run by an older couple who were absolutely in love with the girls. Especially their oh so appropriate outfits...thank you very much. This will definitely be our traditional apple picking farm from here on out. The girls loved it here. A ton of trees had lower branches they could reach with no assistance and they picked every apple we got. Yes, some of them were spotty and looked like a family of worms had moved in them, but THEY picked them.
