Apple Pickin'

Yesterday the girls and I went out to Lynn and Leonda's and picked apples from one of many trees in their orchard. Then we came home and made several quarts of applesauce, plus one lone apple pie (we wanted to make two pies, but honestly were so tired of doing apples by that time). The girls were great helpers as we cut, cored, sliced, cranked and scooped!Finally, a tree that Megan could climb....something she loves to do, but is unable to since we lack good climbing trees at our place!
Leah helped Leonda go around and pick up all the rotten or bruised fallen apples.If you come for a visit, we'll share our applesauce with you!
