Our Annual Gingerbread House Crew Apple Orchard Trip

Each year, we take a trip to a different apple orchard with Ronda and Terry, the Borns and the McDonalds - the families of the boys that Owen went to daycare with at Ronda's.  Our crew has grown by 3 over the last 2 years - Liam's little brother Logan, Sully's little sister Nelly Lu and of course Hattie Josephine!

The boys run and play and have so much fun together.  It's fun to hear them talk to each other about their schools and their friends.  This year, the boys didn't want us to take their pictures.  It was kind of like hearding cats trying to get them together, to smile and to look at the camera.  The weather was incredible and we had an amazing time.

We enjoyed watching the goats, having rubber ducky races, playing on the playground, enjoying apple donuts, going on a hay ride and picking apples.

Baaa-aaa!

 This is the best picture I could get with the 3 of them....and I had to say "Stinky Toots!" to get it!
