Sis had another soccer game today and scored a goal. It was a proud moment for us to see and extra special since Grandma surprised us by showing up. It was a gorgeous, crisp fall morning - perfect weather for outdoor activities.
Later I took off on a walk with Krista. We have so much in common this year since she is homeschooling her brood of youngsters. I enjoy her companionship so much...
The day ended with a family trip to our local apple orchard. It's the very same orchard my family frequented when I was growing up. It sure brings back a flood of memories when I see my own children squealing with delight over the rope swing my brother and I loved. The kids each picked a bag of apples, and we shared some pumpkin and chocolate fudge. I couldn't resist picking the most luscious peach. It cost a dollar but was worth every bite (especially since I shared it with the kids).
We hope to have a working camera before long; there were so many pictures I wanted to take today. Guess that means we'll have to make another trip to the orchard before the snow falls...

Sounds like an amazing day! We weren't able to go to the orchard this year & I miss our tradition. I hope you go again so we can see pics! =) In the meantime I can see it all in my minds eye.
