Apples!

Can you guess what we did today? I know it's hard to tell by my very clever titles :)
I can be tricky. One of our favorite things to pick at Greenbluff is apples. Mostly because they are big, easy to grab and low so the kids can reach them. Here we are...


Cute obligatory picture under the apple tree :)


I'm not sure what he saw, but he looks a little worried doesn't he?


This was the favorite photo worthy apple. I'm not sure what made it special, but here it is! If you take a look at Sammy there in the background.....that is him pushing the apples down as hard as he can to make room for more. Don't I have a thoughtful boy? (I'm pretty sure they all survived :) )



This one is just because I really liked this picture of Katie :)

I've gone Little House on the Praire



Look at this....I've made soap. MADE SOAP! I can't remember what posessed me to do this, but I'll admit it was kinda fun :) If I did this, then what's next? Matching denim jumpers for the kids? Home made yogurt? Oh wait, we did that too! The yogurt, not the jumpers! I've gone mad and I love it. Home made soap anyone?
