How 'Bout Them Apples!

Just in time for fall, our family visited Carter Mountain Orchard in Charlottesville to pick apples. My sister-in-law and her boys came along for the fun. Our nephew Dresden fully expected Uncle Graham to climb to the top of the tree to retrieve the Golden Delicious apples, but thankfully for Graham, we found some low hanging fruit. We all had a yummy time munching as we picked! Too bad for me that it was a long hike into the orchard and back and it felt more like summer than early autumn. Afterwards, I recharged on a big bottle of water and an apple cider doughnut! Totally worth it!


Dresden and Maddy show off their fruit!



Baby Lex sucks on a sweet apple piece.



The kiddos take a break while Graham goes scouting for more apples.



Happy Fall!
