Apple Land

I can't believe that my girls have turned 9 years old this past weekend!! I look at them and I no longer see them as babies, they have turned into beautiful, young girls.

We took them to Apple Land for thier birthday. It is a fun place just outside of London, Ontario. We were very fortunate to have such a wonderful warm and sunny day. It had rained here for over a week straight!!!


I think the most fun was helping the girls hunt and pick apples from the trees. We really had to search and work hard at getting them. Poor Steve needed a hot bath and some Advil after having to lift the kids up to pick thier apples!!

The girls all had fun picking and carrying thier apples. Here they are posing with thier stash and carrying the heavy bushel once it was full:

We all had fun posing in the Pumpkin Patch. We called ourselves "The Apple Land Gang."

When we were done weighing our apples and paying for them, we took some time to take a couple pictures at the Pumpkin Spot:

It sure was a perfect family outing shared with great friends. We will have to make this a yearly event.
