We brought the whole clan out apple picking yesterday! It was our first trip out into the real world with all the kids (when we weren’t going to the doctor) and oh boy!, was it fun! Our friends Aaron and Janaisa have a daughter a year and a half older than Gwen, and the girls love to play together. Last time we all got together they offered that if we wanted to go apple picking (one of our favorite Autumn activities that we were planning on skipping this year), they were willing to go with us, and could help with the babies. Naturally, we jumped at the opportunity!
The weather couldn’t have been any nicer. Gwen and Kenzi had a blast playing and picking apples and Aaron lived vicariously through our trio, carrying Holden in the back pack all day. We brought the quad stroller, in case Gwen and Kenzi got tired of walking, but it worked better to contain Tess, Nora, and all our apples. It was fun showing the kids that there is a world outside our house filled with beauty and wonder. Not to mention giving them their first taste of real, fresh apples!
And naturally, what blog post wouldn’t be complete without a ton of pictures? I guess it’s to be expected when you have a ton of kids that you’ll be taking tons of pictures… LOL! Here are the photo highlights:
