We lucked out and picked a beautiful day to go apple picking.

There were SO MANY apples…the trees were just sagging.

Notice how Liam feeds the chickens…notice the distance between him and the chicken…

It’s probably been at least three years since we have been apple picking as a family. The place we used to go to is no longer an apple orchard, so I had to find someplace new. There is an apple orchard that is MUCH closer to our house, but every time I check their picking status it says they are picked out. Colm went to Alldredge Apple Orchard last year for a field trip, so even though it’s a little ways away, I knew what to expect and was certain it was worth the drive.
