Getting ready for our company to arrive.  I finished the gift for my sister in law.

On Saturday we drove to the country to view the fall colors and went apple picking at this orchard.

There were a few apples at the tops of the trees and so many on ground.  I think maybe the wind blew them down.

We also picked our "Pumpkin Pie" pumpkins.

We also stopped at a little farm to have fresh cider and cider doughnuts.

Resting our feet and checking in with the children back home.

1/2 of these fabulous apples turned into a pie for our dessert.

Today I think we are going to go people watch at a mall and go to Cheesecake Factory for lunch.  That is. . . when Cari takes the right train out to our NJ suburbs!

  1. How great to be making so many great memories.  I came across a picture of Uncle Bill this last week sitting in the kitchen  in his denim jacket and huge Stetson, and pipe.  Oh the nostalgia of it all.  I love you all.  Momeeee
