YUMMY YUMMY IN MY TUMMY

This weekend we went to Windy Hill Apple Orchard to pick some apples. We met up with some of our friends, the Holmans. Sandi and I along with some of our other friends had been a few years ago and a lot had changed since then but it was still fun! They had goats, pigs, chickens and roosters running around and plenty of apple trees!
Mason thought it was soo neat to get so close to the chickens he said...we should tip toe so they wont be scared of us!
Mason and I made this bag a few weeks ago this is one of the only crafts hes done all month...he used to be really into crafts...not so much anymore???
Aww, cute friends...Jonathan, Mason and Abbie!
Mason discovered this box of apples...you would have thought it was treasure!! Its much easier to get apples out of the box than from the tree!!
Chris and Mason picked out a pumpkin for Mason to take home and paint
We decided to make apple turnovers with our hand picked apples...Chris and Mason rolled out the dough
I filled them and closed them
Mason sprinkled the powdered sugar after we fried them.
Chris was the "Fry Daddy"...this is really the first time either of us has had any success frying anything other than a turkey...which Chris is WONDERFUL at!
We had so much fun with this whole experience with Mason! Picking the apples, making the turnovers and of course eating them...maybe this can become a new tradition in the Haynes family!

Looks Yummy!! That looked like so much fun! Don't think we have an apple orchard like that around here! You're such a "Martha Stewart" kind of mom. How lucky for your kids!!
