It's about a 2 hour drive and the weather didn't look promising, but LD is always much more open to these big adventures than I am. I kept saying it was raining and he kept telling me we were in a cloud. Either way...it was misty, but not too cold and ended up turning into a nice day.
The girls love Sky Top Orchards because there are 3 or 4 swing sets and a few playhouses.
I love it because they have apple cider donuts and it is beautiful being in the mountains!
But these little girl's legs (especially Elle's) were tired from all the walking. And of course LD was determined to find the apples that we had sampled and liked, so we walked A LOT!
But it was a perfect fall day, with fall weather and we came home with a lot of apples! I even made some yummy apple butter!
The next day Clare's school had a field trip to Aw Shucks! and since they are so little you just drive and stay for the preschool day.
It was set up so cute with 7 little stations all having to do with corn or farm work. So at this station they talked about silos and pretended to be a piece of corn sliding down.
And then they planted their own corn and watered it, picked a pumpkin, went on a hay ride, walked through a corn maze, milked a cow and collected eggs.
Such a fun day with my little girlies!!
