Applejack!

Last Sunday, Maddy and I had the
fun experience of heading to Nebraska's very
own Applejack Festival with
 
 
Picture perfect fall day -- nice and cool, but it actually
warmed up quite a bit!
 
First stop . . .
pony rides!
Maddy decided she was a bit too big
this year -- but we loved seeing those sweet
little ponies!
Kamree rode the smallest one --
 named Token. 
So cute -- she wanted to bring him home!
 
 
We had some kettle corn and headed out to
the orchards to pick apples.
 
 
Oh my word -- there were a ton of apples.
Unfortunately -- all 4 of us are a bit vertically
challenged and with no ladders in sight, 
we couldn't reach most of them!
 
 
So, we started  walking -- 
up and down and
up and down some more til
we found trees with apples we could actually reach!
It didn't take long to fill our 10 pound bags!
 
 
Luckily, we found the hayrack ride back or
we might still be wandering around the
orchard!
 
 
It was loads of fun!
Now, where are all those apple recipes?
