It was a busy day today! I was reminded by Ian this week that we had not yet been apple picking this year. Kyra picked up on it too so we took a road trip to Hillside Orchard in Casco today. It was the perfect day today too! Here are the kids in the tractor-pulled wagon ready to set out for the orchard.
Even though Ian loves apples, I think he secretly loves apple picking because he has free reign to climb the trees. Of course, these trees were a little smaller than the orchard we visited last year so a few apples were knocked down in the process!
Kyra also got in on the picking! In fact, she had to have her own personal bag. I had a hard time getting a picture of her looking at the camera today though!
We also were able to do double-duty as the orchard also featured a pumpkin patch. Ian found a perfect pumpkin right away; however, Kyra was a little more picky! This one was too big, that one was still green, that one had a bug . . . and on and on. Finally, she settled on this one.
So, here we are with our harvest. It was a great day and I'm sure those kiddos will sleep well tonight!

Looks like it was a fun day. I love the family pic. So what do you do with all the apples? Eat as is? Bake pies? Applesauce?
Cute pictures! Great haircut as well my friend.
i was going to comment on the same thing margie did - the hair! not only does it look like you cut it, it looks like you colored it too! can't wait to see it up close :) glad you had a wonderful family weekend.
