Apple picking...

We took off for the local hills this morning, in search of apples...yum! We joined our San Diego FUNschoolers group at Raven Hill Orchard in Julian. We were a bit late but caught up with some of our friends. We bought 3 bags today and filled them to the brim and overflowing with various types of yummy apples. They had Gala, Jonagold, Red & Golden delicious, Pippin as well as some other varieties that I've forgotten. Rebekah got into it and picked her own apples, and when she was done with he one she dropped it to the ground (as was instructed) and went to pick another. We all left with our bags overflowing (and some pockets too!) and our tummies full.

As we were leaving a few of us decided to stop and eat (our real) lunch together. We stopped by Cuyamaca Lake and the kids played on a pier together. The wasps got to be a hassle for some of us so we decided to pack up and leave. It was a lovely day for everyone, I had 3 of my 4 kids asleep in the back of the car when we got home! That never happens to me anymore...
