Apple Picking!

This weekend we finally went apple picking. I have been waiting so impatiently myself, ha ha. By far apple picking is one of my most favorite fall activities to do as a family. This was the girls first time. All three of them thought it was neat and did a swell job filling the bag right up. Red delicious are the girld favorites. 



 We were blessed with a sunny wand warm october day. To our surprise we started to sweat picking the apples. Only in Michigan can it be either 80 degrees or snowing in one month. 


 They were quit the pros at picking apples. Vivian had learned the correct way of picking an apple off the tree at her recent field trip.
 Of course the hubby has to scout out where the best apples were. 
 Sisters helping sisters or what we call, team work in our house. 
There were even some apples low enough for our littlest to pick on her own. She was so proud!
 She wouldn't take a picture with me. She was too busy eating an apple. In fact I lost count how many apples they snacked on while picking, ha ha ha.
 Sisterly love totally melts my heart.
 This is our typical picture of the three girls. Viv is usually in la la land. Ev most always has an attitude from not wanting her picture taken. helen on the other hand likes to pout about who knows what. For myself, I always get a good chuckle from the pictures. 


After the hard work from picking apples we were off to play. next we're off to the pumpkin patch...

Photo Friday!

Summer is coming to an end. I'm not sure if I should be sad or happy that fall has arrived? we have been enjoying the last couple warm days we are blessed with here in Michigan. We try to get outside as much as possible before the snow arrives. 

 We must get in as much bike time before the true cold air arrives and snow starts falling. Their calling for our first big snow storm in November. Yes already!
 Helen loves sitting in the grass. Enjoy it while you can little love bug. Soon enough it will be covered in colorful leaves.
 This summer our girls grew a special bond with our neighbors and as so did we. 
Not to mention they have a pretty cool tire swing!
NOTE: these next few pictures are not good quality due to stealing them from my phone via INSTAGRAM.
Helen and I have been enjoying our 3 morning together while big sissy's are at school.
This past week we had a community car wash, ha ha! Joking of course. The kids were just cleaning the car.
Viv learned about apple in pre school. She was so excited to find out there is a star in the middle.
For myself, well I am finally getting the routine down. I couldn't get through my mornings without my coffee.
