It's been a long time dream of mine to own an apple tree. I don't know why really, perhaps it's simply because I like the idea of being able to step out of my house and pick a ripe, juicy apple fresh off of the tree. Someday I will make this dream a reality, but in the meantime I settled for the next best thing, going to an apple orchard with my girls.
It's funny how much I find myself depending on other people...I almost didn't go to the orchard this year...again, because well I couldn't find anyone to go with. The thought of driving a long distance alone with the girls seemed daunting, let alone handling two little ones by myself once I got there. But something inside of me this year just said to hell with it! I'am not letting another fall go by with me just thinking about it, I was going to do it.
I'm glad I did.

We had a great time, it didn't matter that half the apples we picked were from the unripened side of the orchard. They still tasted sweet to us.
