fall break: apple orchard

 We drove to Detroit to my brother Michael's house Wednesday night.  Thursday morning his wife, Gabby, came with us to pick apples at an apple orchard.  The girls absolutely adore Gabby so it made it extra fun.  We had the best day!  It was a lot colder than we are used to, but Michigan is beautiful.  The girls were so excited about getting the apples and were excitedly talking about their plans to make apple crisp when we got home.  They loved the apple donut and warm cider we got at the end of our adventure.  Apple picking was definitely a highlight of our trip!
