Apple Picking

We spent Saturday morning in the North Georgia Mountains at Reece's Apple House picking apples. This is the third year in a row that we have gone there and every year it seems to be more fun. The girls were as in to picking apples as they were eating them. The weather was perfect..cloudy at first and then it warmed up. But, I think it kept the ever present wasps and bees away while we were there. After picking apples, we spent quite some time at the new petting zoo they have there. The girls were very brave and ran right in to pet...more like chase...the animals. There were goats, pigs, chickens, a very noisy turkey, and sheep. But, our favorite was the bunnies. Both girls decided to get in the little pen with the bunnies to pet them and play with them. After picking and playing we loaded up the car with all our fresh fruit and several samplings of fried apple pies for the drive home. And now it's time for the real fun...homemade apple pie!!!
