Apple Orchard - Fall Fun

After soccer, we headed to Ellijay to Hillcrest Apple Orchard with our friends Riley, Mattie Lou, Mrs. Stephanie and Mr. Randy. We have never been to their Orchard before but will be going back again next year! The kids had fun milking Buttercup the cow, picking their own apples, sliding down the big slide and the pig races. Before the pig race began, Dad was picked to race a horse around the track. He didn't win but he made up proud!

Riley and Jack were both picked to go up and cheer on a pig. Jack had to tell everyone his name and where he was from. He did great with his responses . . . (name) Jack Jack (from) HOME! With all his cheering, his pig came in first! Way to go Jack!

With the apples we purchased, we made a delicious apple pie. Jack and Caroline helped Mom from start to finish. They loved making it but only wanted the ice cream not the pie!

Neither Stephanie nor I got a group shot of the kids! What were we thinking? I guess you can say a long day.
