Welcome, october.

What better way to welcome October than with a trip to a local apple orchard?

And while not our official “pumpkin patch” outing, it was definitely a good warm-up. 
Eli really wanted some of these apples:

This one is a close second:

This is the picture that cemented the need for a hair cut for a certain someone.  The wind is “feathering” it nicely, don’t you think? :-)

Friend or foe?

Aw I wish we had apple orchards here, fall isn't the same in FL.

Looks like they had a blast! I wish my hair would feather like that in the wind!! I have never been to an apple orchard, and your pictures really make me want to go!

Just stopping by from SITS! The apple orchard looks like so much fun. We have on up near us here in WI, and I've always wanted to go. The weather got pretty chilly pretty quickly this year, but hopefully we can make the trip in late spring!

I love everything about OCTOBER!!! LOL I can't wait to visit the pumpkin patch. OUrs aren't nearly as cool as those. Just some random parking lot with pumpkins in it. BORING, but what you gonna do!! I might go ona hunt for a cool on this year though.

I also love of course HALLOWEEN. My fav day of the year. In fact if I ever get married, it's gonna be on Halloween!! Creepy I know!

Brian and I are zipping up to Oak Glen for some apple crisp and a taste of fall tomorrow when the kids are at school! Sneaky us!

Unknown said...

Stopping over from SITS this morning. HOLY cow do I love that picture of her walking amoung the trees. So sweet! And I laughed out loud about the hair feathering : ) Funny stuff!

I heart fall!
Ok, I said that during a sneezing attack.

Let me rephrase that, I heart fall but hate the sinus issues that come along with it.

Liz Mays said...

That completely cracked me up! Oh the feathering....

Your pictures are always so brilliant!
