Apple Picking

i LOVE apple picking.

i LOVE apple cider doughnuts.

i LOVE fresh apple cider.

Apple picking at Honeypot Hill Orchard with my family has been a favorite Boston tradition. We went last Saturday for our annual pick. Even though it was Saturday and ultra crowded, we had a wonderful time.

Emily loves to climb the ladders to get the apples up top. Sadly, this year on her first ladder, in the first 5 minutes she got stung by a bee! It certainly didn't ruin the day, but she was scared to go up any more ladders.

Lyla liked the ease of just picking them up off the ground.

Since ladders weren't an option anymore- Daddy's shoulders work great.

Strong woman pulled off a little more than just the apple.

Eating apples along the way :)

Apples as big as her face.. almost..

This activity was PERFECT for Lyla. She was able to wander around and eat apples, 2 of her favorite things, I didn't even speed her along. 

Pumpkin patch!!

I didn't tell Justin, because I was slightly embarrassed, but I almost got teary as we were leaving. This is going to be our last time here. I guess this next year is going to be full of that, but it's sad to say goodbye to the places we've grown to love.
