Apple Time

We've got a great crop of apples off our one producing apple tree this year.  Brian and Zeke harvested them this weekend and got two huge grocery bags full of them!  Then they worked together to make a giant batch of homemade applesauce... delicious!!!  We've been enjoying it every night with dinner for the last 3 days!  Next weekend, apple pie!

Kindergarten Field Trip

Emmy got to go on her first field trip today to Cover's Apple Ranch.  I cancelled my class (my students were so sad, I know) so I could go on the adventure with her.  It was not her first time at Cover's, but it was her first time on a school bus, and she had a great time with her friends!

Here are a couple of fun shots from the day...

Having Fun on the Swings

The weather has been beautiful and unusually warm for this time of year, and we are trying to take full advantage of the time to be outside.  These videos are from a couple days ago when the kids were having a great time with each other, swinging and laughing together. 

I had to capture the moment
to remember the sounds of my favorite little people-

-and to share it with you!



The sounds of my kids squeals of delight and unabashed laughter
always puts a smile on my face. 

Hopefully it does for you, too!
