First trip of the season to the Apple Orchard...

We made the first trip to the apple orchard this evening. I LOVE going to the apple orchard, or as Grace called it "AppleBee's". I think she thought that is what it's called b/c Breanna works at Applebee's and she hears Brenda say that. We were walking up and Grace said, "Mommy why are there scary crows (aka: scare crows) at AppleBee's?"

Eva loved the apple orchard too - she just like Grace did several years ago, loved picking up the apples and saying, "ball-ball". Both girls had fun eating apples right off the tree (after a little wet wipe cleaning!). And Grace didn't forget the famous apple slushes - she asked as soon as she'd finished her apple, "where is the apple juice???". I let the girls share one (added some water) and put it in their cups. Grace was like, "yes!" and Eva gave me a huge grin, I'm sure compared to plain water it was a real treat!

It's only August so I'm sure we'll go back 2-3 more times, b/c we love the apple orchard... and who wouldn't want to go, good apples, slushes, and everyone commenting on how cute my girls are!
