Tractor Driving and Apple Picking


 October has the brightest blue skies and, depending on who you ask, often the best weather.


Things that were once largely taken for granted like getting to go to school and getting to pick apples are now being appreciated on a deeper level. 


I am thankful that this fall still included one of my favorite traditions, with Brittany and Kevin, two of our favorite people.


It was our first picking experience that involved ladders, and the first ever apple picking for three of the persons in our group. 


However, two of those first timers only ate apples, which was actually a very useful activity for them to stay occupied in their baby carriers. 


In addition to the tractors and apples, there was pumpkin posing. 


There was also live fiddle music and conversations about whether we liked caramel or chocolate covered apples the best and what candy we would want on top of that.


And no trip to the Orchard would be complete without apple cider donuts.
