An Apple a Day...

This past September we joined several other families up at Sky Top Orchard for a fun afternoon of apple picking...football playing...donut eating fun!




We went a little bit later this season then in years past so we had to look UP for the good apples.


There were plenty on the ground that Hailey was happy to pick up and put in the buckets...even after the very LONG talk we gave about black spotted apples!


Apples are definitely the goal for the trip...but the highlight? The apple cider doughnuts!!!
The smell of fresh doughnuts energized all of us as we were scavenging for the perfect apples...and the half-hour wait was not a deterrent at all!


Then with full buckets and bellies...the rest of the afternoon was spent having FUN with friends.
We had bushels of apples that soon turned into apple bread, apple pie, apple sauce, apple butter and apple cheesecake bars. 
You would be surprised how fast this family went through almost TWENTY pounds of apples!!
