Honey Crisp of a Day - 2008!!!!





Favorite Pic from 2007

Last year some of my favorite pictures were when we went Apple Picking in September.  Ruby had only been home four months.  Watching her take a bite of her first apple right off of the tree was priceless.  I will never forget it!   I wrote about it here last year.  She was such a peanut back then!

Fast forward one year, and we had another great day apple picking.  It was absolutely gorgeous here today.  77 degrees!  Oh, how I love October in Minnesota!  The difference this year, was Ruby could grab the low branches, pull off the apples, and run around the orchard!  When we told her we were heading to the orchard in the car, she said, "SWEET!!"  Yes, things have changed in a year!!!

As you can see Ruby was more in the picture mood than she was last Saturday.  She even snuggled with the pumpkins!  

Right now I have Apple Cobbler in the oven, and cinnamon & vanilla ice cream in the freezer!
"SWEET!"

Blessings,

YUM!! And those pictures, from this year and last year, are fantastic! My favorite is the one of dad with his two girls on the back of the wagon (I'm guessing that's where they are?) It's awesome!!
Happy Fall... sounds perfect there :)

Apple cobbler sounds so yummy even better with ice cream!!!

Di,

Your photos and collages are great!

Yummy! I want some cobbler and ice cream. I am so jealous of you people who have "Fall" right now. I cannot even tell you. However, the pearl and the ruby look adorable here. We went to the pumpkin patch today...it was HOT!

I have followed your blog for a long time. You always have such great pictures. Do you use a special camera or is it a photo editing program.

Thanks so much

Gorgeous - and yes, what an amazing day we had on Saturday with that weather. I love your fave pic from 2007, too.

These pictures are so beautiful, what gorgeous colors and the apple crisp sounds yummy!
I can't believe you all fell into the water this weekend, I'm shivering just thinking about it! I'm glad it's nothing that a little hot chocolate and warm bath couldn't fix. :)
