Mrs. Lewis' class to the apple orchard

I went along with Kory's class to the apple orchard yesterday. It was a very cold, windy day but the orchard was still beautiful despite the weather. We went on a hayride around the orchard and Helene explained what she and her husband need to do each day and year to make the apples grow. It was pretty interesting. All of the kids were able to fill a bag with apples they picked from the trees. Kory brought home 1/4 peck of apples that amounted to I believe 9 apples. He has already eaten two. He won't let anyone touch the one's that are left. Last night he was ready for daddy to make an apple pie with them, but we'll see what today brings!








All of the leaves are changing here and the landscape looks so beautiful so...Jas and I are taking the boys on a drive tomorrow after football. We are going to hit an apple orchard on the way up north. We have yet to drive "up north" so it should be fun to explore the small towns while enjoying the fall colors.
