This is what I call team work. Most of the apples on the bottoms of the trees had already been picked, so we had to reach up high. 
We picked around a bushel of apples, probably a little more. It cost us $33.00, but it was so worth it because we know where what we are eating came from. Her is Emma amongst a bunch of pumpkins, it was a little set up they had to take pic's but she wasn't very happy. She was hot and cranky. But I think this picture is so cute!
We all got in a hay filled wagon then and rode to the pumpkin patch. We let the kids pick there pumpkins, Emma even picked a little one.
It was a great day. When we got home I was so excited and made my first batch of applesauce! It is so yummy! I didn't even have to add sugar. So I'm really excited cause I can give Emma this also! It is so much tastier than anything in the store!
I still have about 1/2 a bushel left. I'm trying to decide what to do with them......maybe apple butter...or more applesauce,,,,I don't know yet.

Looks like you had fun. Where did you go? I always want to take the girls somewhere, but this is always such a busy time of year for us. Mark has to be in the fields on the nice days. Maybe I'll just go to Slater's and get some apples. I'd love to make some apple butter. Yum!
Kercher's Sunrise Orchird is where we went, its in Goshen. If you type in pickyourown.org, it will show you like all the places in the country you can go and pick things, its a really cool website.
