Apple Pickin' time

It's that time again... apple pickin' time! The kids have been counting down the days til we could go pick apples. Last year, we were afraid we would miss our chance to get these juicy things due to Moses putting us on bed rest but then he came early. At about a week and a half old he went on his first Clifton Family apple pickin' trip.
This year, he was eating a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, drinking whole milk, has eight teeth and is walking around trying to eat the rotten apples off the ground. A lot has changed one year!

We hit the orchard on the weekend this year (usually we go during the week to avoid the crowds) and got to see the farmers making fresh apple cider and apple butter. The kids loved watching them take the apples from the trees and create other things to eat.
Our bag was overflowing with juicy apples to bring home and so the feast has begun.


The Cliftons heart Hartland Orchard!
