First Trip to the Orchard

As a kid, my mom always took my sisters and me to Edwards Apple Orchard in Poplar Grove...it's a huge orchard where they have pick your own apples, pumpkins, raspberries, and THE BEST cider donuts you've ever had. They bake them right there and you get them right out of the oven. To keep with tradition, Matt and I plan on taking Maddie there each year.

Since the weather was so beautiful on Saturday, we couldn't pass up the opportunity to go. Of course hundreds of other people had the same idea. The lines weren't too horrible and Maddie did pretty well considering it was so warm. She was pretty excited to see her first pumpkin, but didn't know what to make of it. She loved the cider donuts as much as mom and dad. Near the end of the day, she was getting cranky, so we headed home.
