I love fall!

On Monday we got to go to the apple orchard. And although the tractor wasn't running and it was 86 degrees, the kids enjoyed the adventure! Mommy loved the apple turnover and daddy loved getting to use his camera. I just love spring and fall in Iowa! It is so beautiful right now! It is usually 50s at night, but mostly it is a perfect 70 degrees. It sometimes gets hot from 2 to 4, and of course that is when we went. :) We are so blessed though! Some of the leaves are beginning to fall and turn colors. I can't wait for all the yellows and oranges, especially! Thank you God for September!
I know... I look like a monkey don't I? I am supposed to be Johnny Appleseed!
Trying to get the perfect apple!
Elizabeth wanted to pick every apple and put it in her basket!
Eating the fruit of her labor So thankful to God for these two miracles! And the love they have for each other! I can't get over how different they look too!
Tasting the goods
Phillip did her hair with two hair bows that morning, and I thought it was really cute!
Walking through the mud to get to the good apples! It was so hot!
So excited to find a flower and wanting to smell it!

The pics of the two of them together are so precious! They ARE so different in looks-reminds me of how my boys are complete opposites in looks, too!

They don't look anything alike. Glad you had fun. My mom was going to take the kids today, but it rained. :(
