We started off our day at storytime. Today we talked about pumpkins. It fit in great with all the pumpkin patches we have been to lately. Afterwards, Miss Sarah had a pumpkin craft for the kids to create. Lucy’s turned out pretty good. 😊When we were finished, we hurried home, ate some lunch, and headed over to the orchard. We have watched these apples grow for the past several months. NOW IT’S PICKING TIME!!!I couldn’t believe how gorgeous the orchard was from down below. I’d just love to curl up on a blanket underneath the trees and watch the birds and deer. There were SO many apples! I can’t believe how many apples one tree can have!!!These are definitely NOT Texas apple trees!We learned a lot about apples. We learned how to look for worms, how to take the apple off the tree without harming the branch, and how to look for hail damage. A lot can happen to an apple while it grows.William was such a super helper with Lucy. (As always. He is such a fabulous big brother!)Lucy found a slug on an apple on the ground. She decided to have it ride with her the rest of the time we were there. When it was time to go, she let it “go back to its family to have fun.”Couldn’t ask for a more beautiful day!❤️
