I picked S up from school, and it really wasn't a far ride from her school at all! We took some requisite pumpkin/scarecrow pictures and then headed to the playground to wait on our friends to arrive!
Why, you ask, is S wearing C's shorts starting in the 4th picture!?!? Because right after I took C to the potty and had asked her not once, but twice, if she needed to potty to which she replied "no!", she wet her pants!!! SERIOUSLY!?!?!!? All I had in the car were a pair of C's shorts that are actually too small for him but fit her, two pairs of his underwear and a pull-up! I thought she would flip out and not wear them and I wasn't sure what I was going to do, but she put on his pants and underwear and never looked back... craziness!!
Our friends have arrived during all this "fun" and now that we are ready we go get our baskets and wagons and head out into the orchard. This time we picked pink ladies and golden delicious. We went to the very.last.row of apple trees in the orchard to get these babies! What a hike!!!!
On our way, we stopped in to check on the sheep and goats! I guess maybe one particular goat had had a rough day because he was not at all impressed by our loud, fence-shaking group and proceeded to ram the fence at the kids! Okay, we got the point, we left him be in his grumpy state and continued on to the apples!
The rules say not to eat the apples, but we pretended we didn't know this little tidbit and munched away:) As she was munching, S lost her fifth tooth! It had been hanging on by a thread(do teeth even have threads? whatever!) for the past week and I was glad to see it finally come out!
C was more interested in pulling the wagon around, a couple of the kids were more interested in climbing the trees and one kid helped pick apples! That left the mommies to do all the work - and then haul a very heavy wagon back up, up, up to the top of what seemed to be Mount Everest!
We paid for our loot, bought the kids doughnuts, made sure everyone went potty to avoid any more accidents on the way home, played on the playground one last time and then came back down the mountain!
See you in 2014 Sky Top!!
