To the Orchard.....for Green Apples

Well last Saturday Ian woke up wanting to go pick apples!! Specifically.....green apples. So we loaded up the family and headed to Robinette's. Well....who knew you couldn't pick your own apples there. So we let Ian eat donuts, drink cider and play for a while.

A few photo ops:

Once we found an orchard to pick green apples, we headed to an orchard off of Fruitridge Ave. They had the works.....pony rides, a petting zoo, swings, slides and GREEN APPLES!!!

Not so sure about the donkey.....

The great green apple hunt...of course, one must taste them before you keep them ;-)

Picnic Time!

Today was the Amway Family Picnic at Fallsburg Park. It's always a great time for the kids with elephant and pony rides, games, food and much more!
Ian and I spent the day there today and had a great time!
First was the elephant ride - a 1 hour line that Ian did exceptionally well with. A short ride on Laura the elephant was just want Ian ordered ;-)

Followed by a lunch of watermelon, more watermelon and.....more watermelon!


Then it was time for the fun stuff - slides, games and swings!




And...how Ian really feels about carnival rides:

This swing thing is a little different - I'm sure it'll be fun! No way will it be scary....

Okay, first time around and all is good - this swing is cake!

Well....I'm just not so sure about it. Maybe it's time to stop?


I hate this thing - get me off of it!!!

So the swing (followed by some popcorn, of course) was the end of our day at the picnic!
