Pickers

Wow, I am so behind with my blogging. Here's a few fun things that we did this September.
A friend of a friend has an apple orchard and nobody wanted the apples, so we were invited to go and pick them. Emma and I went with a neighbor and her kids. It was really fun. Emma loved it. She would pick them, take a bite and then put them in the bag. She is so cute. We picked alot and then ate alot of apples at our house. I finally gave the rest of them to Shelley so she could do some baking.
A week after the apple picking, we went to Miller Farms. It is a U-Pick farm. Shelley and I paid $20 and we got to pick 18 ten pound bags of produce. We picked potatoes, tomatoes, beans, corn, peppers, watermelons, onions, carrots, celery, and other fresh goodies. I will say that it was hard work and I am not cut out to be a farmer, but it was a really fun morning.
