September = Apples


At least around here it does!  On September 10th we went back here to go apple picking.  This year we went earlier then last year and we had a much better selection to choose from and plenty down low for the girls to pick.  We came home with another 20 lbs of apples!  My apple peeler corer slicer was working over time this month with all the apple sauce, apple pie, apple cake, and apples and sausage.  I think I just left it on the counter for two weeks since I was using it daily.  :)


First we started off with eating lunch.  The farm was selling grass fed beef sandwiches.

 Then of course we had to take time to climb the cool tree we were sitting next to. :)


 Then we had to pet and say hi to the horse

 Then we finally made it to the apples:

Then on Monday of this week just before it was time to change out this:


 To this:

We had one more apple event to take care of.  Kaylee had Johnny Appleseed day where everything was all about apples for the day.  Lex and I got to go in and help out with an apple station. 

Here she is at "line the apples up from the biggest to the smallest":

 Apple coloring game:

 Put the lower case apple letter on the big letter.  Lex had fun doing this one too, with Mommy's help. :)


 Making paper apples:

Measuring how tall you are in apples:

Make a necklace out of Apple Jacks:

Then the whole class got to show their apples:

After, Lex and I stayed and had lunch:

And that concludes our apple month.  Bring out the pumpkins!
