Apples, Apples, and Pumpkins

How appropriate that fall is here and the theme of the last two weeks at school has been APPLES!!! And to go with it they have learned songs about apples, made apple crafts and are going apple picking next week for their first field trip. Audrey is so excited to be going on a field trip where she gets to ride a school bus, pick apples, go on a hayride, and of course, eat apple cider donuts.
Also to fit the theme and to practice a bit we took Nana apple picking today. Audrey had a blast. She has turned pro in no time at picking and finding the best apples to pick, and eat. She called herself the apple girl today and then giggled. There was an abundance of apples and pumpkins to see. And the apple cider donuts were so yummy! In fact Nana and I only got to eat one each and Audrey ate the other 4 from the bag. She said they were quite yummy and they were. We also brought home several bags to share with dad tonight.

We picked 20 lbs and there were still so many apples!

So many pumpkins!

Audrey is very proud to sing her new apple song that she has learned at school. And she cannot wait to find all the colors of apples next week on her school field trip. And DAD is going to be one of the chaperones for the school field trip. Mom cannot wait to hear all about it.
