A little family apple-picking fun!

When I was a kid, Fall was my favourite time of the year (besides Christmas and my birthday, of course). The return to school to reunite with friends, mixed with the privilege of sporting new back-to-school sweaters was always exciting. But what made fall really special were the beautiful, sunny weekends where the whole family would throw on their windbreakers and do something outside, together.
"Apples right from the tree are the most delicious!" - Ty
Last week Ty brought home a library book from the school about some guinea pig who wanted to pick apples. It got me thinking, so we decided to make a day of it!
We couldn't have asked for more beautiful weather, and we were on a mission: to collect apples for Grandma. The whole activity took less than an hour, including the hay ride to and from the main shack (way shorter than I remember it being), and it was super affordable. The best part was really that Ty kept asking if he could have more apples, and never had to say no!
Log Cabin Orchard was beautiful - with nice short trees for kids - and I would recommend it to anyone. We will be going back to visit next year.
