An "Appealing" Family Outing

Recently, our family visited Keeny's Apple Orchard near Brooklyn, MI. This is an outing we enjoy making in the Fall. The kids like climbing in the trees, picking, and sampling the apples. The owners said this was the best year they have had for apples in 10 years. They were all juicy, big, and delicious. We ended up with about 2 and a half bushels of Golden Delicious, Jona-gold, Northern Spy, Ida Red, and Macintosh apples. Below are some pictures of the kids at the orchard.




Josiah took a break from picking apples to try one. He said he had to sit down to eat it. He started eating it at the orchard, and didn't stop until we were about home.

The apples look delicious!! I really miss going apple picking. I paid $5.00 for 3lbs of apples the other day. I thought of you when I was forking over the dough.

Great to visit your blog again. While I was in the USA I didn't have people's blog addresses with me, and with having a new baby I didn't get to visit too many blogs. Now that I'm back to Colombia, I'm catching up. =)

The apples look good, and your kids are cute. =)
