A GREAT NEW ENGLAND SUNDAY!

We had a great family Sunday, New England style :) Eric and I took the kids apple picking at one of the local orchards. Nanny & Poppy and Auntie and Mike joined us for our outing. The kids had a great time picking their own apples off the trees and filling up their bags. We were lucky to have the all terrain stroller with us to carry back the 35lbs of apples that we collected. We now need to get busy and start making our apple pies, apple sauce and apple butter!

After apple picking we swung home to pick up Bailey and headed down to the beach so he could take a swim before it really starts getting to cold.

The kids had fun despite the strong winds. Emma was quick to loose her shoes and we rolled up her pants and she was off and running in the surf. Wil was happy to follow suit, though he forgot to take off his shoes and roll up his pants. He was a wet sandy mess by the end and was happy to get back to nanny & poppy's house to strip down and get dry. Bailey had a blast and was nice and tired after retrieving his ball out of the water a good two dozen times.

Home we headed for a hot meal of pasta, fresh baked meatballs and home sauce.

All and all a great New England Sunday :)
