Apple & Peach Picking

I have anxiously been awaiting fall this year for many reasons, cooler weather, fresh apples, pumpkin coffee, meeting our new little boy, and not being pregnant anymore.  I have been wanting to go apple picking for a few months now, so as soon as I realized there were apples ready to be picked I was ready to go.  I also wanted to make sure to take Ashlynn now, just in case baby Wain makes an early arrival (wishful thinking, I know!).  Ashlynn, Nana, and I went to Mack's Apple Orchard this past Saturday.  Ashlynn was excited to be able to run all over the place.  She also likes having Nana drag her around like a princess in the wagon while she munched on her apples!  Ashlynn was weaving in and out of the apple trees, picking and apple here and there, mostly eating the apples that she picked.  She was a little confused and was trying to add the apples on the ground to our bag.  I keep reminding her that the dropped apples were for the deer to eat.  Then she would tell me 'Momma don't worry, Daddy's Deer will eat the apples',  Daddy would be pretty happy if he had his own group of Deer.  After we finished Apple Picking we decided we would also pick some peaches since they were still in season.  This is a benefit to picking apples so early in the season!  Ashlynn and I both love peaches so we picked a Small bag for our lunches, and to do some cooking. 

Here are a few bonus pictures of the sunflowers we grew in our garden!  I feel like Ashlynn is already more domestic than I am, she loves to garden, cook, and take care of our chickens!
