Saturday of Fun!

Well, we definitely had some fun today!  The kids were up playing this morning before we left to go to Sky Top Orchards to pick some more yummy apples.  They have fun playing with their GeoTrax.

While his brothers were busy playing, Caleb was on the floor being absolutely cuter than any baby should be.  These are a couple of the cutest pictures.  Look at how cute he is!!!!

No pictures, please.  :)

After a fun, but chilly morning and picnic lunch at Sky Top, we came home with loads of apples!  We picked Granny Smith, MacIntosh and my personal favorite, Cameo!!  After we got home, Drew left with Derek to hunt for the afternoon (They saw a small buck, but they're going to let him get bigger for next year! :)  So, while the cat's away, the mice will play!

First, we made pizza for supper.  The kids had a great time putting sauce, ham and cheese on the pizza.  It was yummy!

Then, we cut open some of our Granny Smith apples to see the star inside.  After we took the seeds out (The kids want to plant them.), I cored the apple halves and filled them with peanut butter.  Yummy dessert!!!

So after pizza and apples, we decided to cut open our pumpkin so I could cook it.  Zachary decided that he wasn't having anything to do with the slimy pumpkin at first.  By the end, he was scooping seeds out with a spoon.  The pumpkin is cooked, the seeds are washed, and in the next couple of days hopefully we will get them roasted.

Zachary's comment was something like "Ewwww!  That's really gross!!!"

So, all in all, the kids had a really great day.  Aaron told us "Thank you for going to the apple store to play" about half a dozen times today.  Everyone is sleeping soundly and we're hoping for a good night.
