Apple Picking

One of my birthday wishes (in September) had been to go apple picking. We spent a weekend in MA with Ben's family before they headed down to Florida. And we got lucky - the weather was perfect on Sunday and we went to a local farm for apple picking.

The hayride/ tractor ride was fun and we got some beautiful views of the valleys around. The kids enjoyed it. Unfortunately the apples were a little difficult to come by. Lots of them were rotting on the ground already or not really good to be picked. We were glad that we had only selected small bags at the entrance to fill up.
And the pears weren't even ready yet to be picked.

But we still had fun on the ride, checking out the farm, eating apples, looking at the pumpkins, walking through the orchards, taking pictures and most importantly: eating cider donuts and drinking apple cider at the end!
