Apple Picking

Since we moved up here just in time for Fall, I insisted we go apple picking. We looked online and found a place, Bolton Spring Farm, that was supposed to be less crowded than the others. It was perfect.

We took a hayride up the hill to the orchard.

And then we just walked through the orchard and picked apples, eating as we went.

Straight off the tree, these apples were the juiciest, sweetest apples I have ever tasted! Delish!

The view was so pretty I wanted to get a picture of the kids together. This was the best I could get.

When we were done picking, we took the hayride back down and over to the pumpkin patch where we picked our Halloween pumpkins.

We finished the day with an apple fritter and some apple cider. Yummy!

Marc's Birthday

For Marc's birthday we didn't do anything too crazy. Mikey took the day off and we went to the North End for lunch. I could seriously go there every day of the week. It's such a cool little neighborhood, very reminiscent of Italy. We ate at Pizzeria Regina which is one of the most famous pizza places in the city.

We got some pizzas to go and shared them with Kathy and Marc for dinner.

He loves his chair from Gramma and Papa!

And of course, they were so excited to play in a big cardboard box!
