While John was out of town last weekend we went to the Erie Apple Orchard (Estelle had already been this season on her school field trip). We went a little before the OWE Family group that we were meeting up with at 1 PM Saturday because Roy & Joyce were coming over at 4 PM to watch the kids for the evening (while mom and Sara celebrated their birthdays by taking a trip to Ann Arbor to see the Martha Graham dance company and eat Ethiopian food at the Blue Nile restaurant - yum). Getting there early allowed us to go in the pumpkin jumper, the caterpillar slide, and on a pony ride. The kids fed big carrots to the ponies they rode. We also bought apple cider donuts, a gallon of cider and 2 1/2 pecks of apples - Macintosh for Estelle & mom, Golden Delicious for George. Once we met the Family group (J.T., Ben W., Eli, Olivia, Kimberly & Christina made it for this outing) we scoped out pumpkins and went on a hay ride. We got to pick more apples to add to our stash. Good thing we like A-P-P-L-E-S so much!
