Apple Orchard


On Saturday we decided to take the kids to the apple orchard. I haven't been to an apple orchard in a LONG time and really wanted to go. Both kids had a wonderful time there. We picked lots of apples and were eating them as we picked them. We also bought some caramel and came home to make caramel apples. Ava and I had a tasty snack today!!! I forgot how good they tasted. We will definitely have to make this an annual tradition. Now we are looking forward to the pumpkin patch with the Ditty's next weekend!

First Day of Preschool!!!


Today was Ava's first day of preschool. I was lucky enough that my principal let me skip out of class and take Ava and pick her up. Ryan took the morning off so that he was able to make it. We made it a family event! Ava did so good and was really excited. When we went into her classroom she was a little nervous because of all the new faces. There were a a few tears, but she did well. When we picked her up she couldn't wait to open her backpack to show us the fun things she did. She has also been talking about all her new friends this afternoon. I am so happy that she enjoyed her first day! Here are a few of my favorite pictures from the day. I was one of 'those' moms today and took a ton of pictures!!
