So after our adventures in getting Desmond’s picture taken, we headed to lunch at Panera, and then to the car, we were planning to head home, but Desmond fell asleep about 10 seconds later, so Dan and I talked and decided to go apple picking. We have been talking about going apple picking for weeks, but we hadn’t gotten to it yet, and if we didn’t go this weekend we won’t be going before India, and the season is over when we get back. So we headed over after a couple of stop to get cash and our camera, since I hadn’t brought it with us to get Desmond’s picture taken.

Once we got to the farm we noticed it was very crowded, the apparently have hayride and other things on the weekends in October. We got to the apple area and parked. Desmond woke after we stopped so we got him up and headed out to the fields. They had Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Ida Red, Mutsu, and Empire apples. Did you know how easy it is to pick 20 pounds of apples? Erm neither did we, but we succeeded with almost exactly 20 pounds of apples, 10 pounds of Mutsu and 10 pounds of Empire.

Anyways here are the pictures of Desmond having fun picking and eating his apple (he only picked one, but it kept him entertained for the whole time, since it was huge and yummy).

I spy an Apple!

Okay this apple won't come off!

Okay fine I'll try to get it off again

Fine, if it won't come off, I'll just eat it while it is on the branch!

Mommy took it off for me, yum apple!

My apple, you can get your own!
