We spent a lovely afternoon at a local apple orchard with our homeschool co-op.  The weather was perfectly cool and crisp, and it felt like such a quintessential fall day!  We had the opportunity to tour the packing house and learn about how the equipment works, as well as visit with all their farm animals, take a beautiful hayride tour of the farm, and pick some apples!  The kiddos loved hanging with their friends, and we even got to enjoy some super delicious cider donuts.  Angel was on her own with the older kids, and I spent most of my time with Dumpling in the younger group.  He had such a great time and especially loved all the playground fun at the end!
