Apple Picking at Cook's Orchard

Logan and I went to Cook's Orchard with some friends to pick some apples. Logan has been an apple fanatic lately, so I thought it would be a fun activity for him to do. He talked about it all morning before we got there. He loved pulling the apples off the tree (and picking them off the ground). He carried his bag all over the orchard ALL BY HIMSELF! He didn't want any help; unfortunately he lost most of his apples out of his bag doing this, but he was very proud of himself and the apples he picked!! The kids had a great time and it was a wonderful outdoor activity for them to do. We'll have to plan on doing it again next year, but earlier in the season so there are more "good" apples to choose from!!!
