The apple orchard wasn’t open yet, so we went to kill time throwing rocks down by the river.  While down there Betsy found a rock she had to have.  Since she has such a manly husband, she said, why don’t you just lift that up and haul it up the hill and put it in the trunk.  Ok, not so many words, but that’s what she meant.  So this rock we call Mo! from the mighty Missouri River.

If you cant reach the apples, get someone to lift you.  That’s were the best ones are.

Time for food at the State Park.  MMM Smores!  The kids love helping build the fire and cook the hot dogs and Smores.  You can see Amy gathered Leah to help cook her marshmallows.

Picking Apples 2012

What a beautiful day.  The weather was cool and Eric has been begging to go pick apples for weeks now.  We missed going down for peaches this year so it was great to get away and get outside for the afternoon.  We then came home and got the fire pit going and had hot dogs and smores for dinner.  Everybody had a great day.

Posing is a new thing for Amy.  It just comes natural for everyone else.
