Apple Orchard Trip

This post is not titled 'Apple Picking' because the orchard that we went to would not allow us to pick any apples! Aside from that minor disappointment, we had some great fall fun with Grandma and Grandpa T and Aunt A and RHCR.

Ponies were ridden. Mr. Z escaped without injury.

Monkey really likes to ride in the green cars. No one knows why.

Monkey helped Mrs. Z make apple crisp.

August Trip

At the beginning of August we took a trip out east to visit our friends The Local Family. We had a wonderful time visiting with their two year old twin boys and new baby girl. Unfortunately our packing skills left something to be desired - and the something to be desired was our camera. Thankfully Local Dad hooked us up with some of his shots. In addition to the zoo, train ride and swings pictured below, we also did some quality hanging out at their Blueberry House (it's bright blue, they also have blueberry bushes in back), meeting their cool neighbors and swimming in a river. A very good time was had by all, and we are very blessed to have such generous and hospitable friends. Thanks, Local Family!
