Apple orchard, take two.

Saturday we went to a different apple orchard, this time as a family. Fall is such a wonderful time of the year and we like to enjoy it as much as possible! In addition to Jas, myself, and the ladies, we had Laura with us. Yeah, we like her enough to bring her with us on occasion. ;o)

This time we went to Fireside Apple Orchard, a local orchard just minutes outside of town. In addition to the orchard itself they have a beautiful garden that we had a chance to explore.


They love their baby sister-There's no doubt about it!


Madeline wasn't too interested in a picture with a floral background so I snapped her where she stood.


Miss Alyssa. This lovely little lady does not look at the camera these days so profile pictures are being had in mass quantities.


This was our favorite flower. Megan was happy to accommodate her mother's picture taking whilst posing by it.


Newly-turned 7 year old Brianna. I'm pretty sure she looks older already.


We took those bags and filled them to overflowing!


Sometimes I find it better to just not ask....


Lovely Laura. I'm sure she will be quite pleased that I put this picture on here for you all to see!


Kate was in a less-than-pleasant mood as is evidenced by this picture.


I have really been struck this fall, by the extravagance of God's creation. I find myself moved to tears on a daily basis by the beauty that God has placed all around us for us to experience and to enjoy. His love for us is shown, overwhelmingly, in the world that he created for us.
I stand in awe.
