Apple Picking at Butternut Farm


Since this summer, CJ has been talking about going apple picking and making applesauce "during the month of Halloween" as he puts it.  So what did we do as soon as we got to New Hampshire?  We put on our sweaters and headed for the orchards.  It was a beautiful (brisk!) fall day, and we had a blast.

They loved the sheep.  CJ kept trying to climb over the fence.


One of my favorite pictures (maybe of all time?).  The kids were so excited to run to the apple trees.  This picture is the definition of 'happiness'.

LL's attempt to 'tackle" CJ


LL loved picking up the apples from the ground and 'trying' them.  She's the second child, so it's okay, right?  Slugs are a type of protein!






CJ wasn't feeling well, but he sure was a trooper!

It was a fun first day in New England, helping to take my mind off from everything that's been going on.  Thanks, Meme, for keeping us busy!
