Apples Galore!!!!

Fall has arrived and it's apple picking time already! Off to the orchard we went to enjoy some picking and some other goodies. Our only choice was to buy a large bag to fill so we get a lot of apples...more than we would ever eat. We tried a few varieties before we settled on picking Melrose. They were delicious for eating and for our homemade applesauce!

These were dwarf Melrose trees. Perfect for us to pick from!

Look at this huge apple!
Pulling with all her might!

Getting ready to make some apple prints...


We had so many apples, I gave some away and then found a recipe online to make applesauce with a few more. I had never made it in a crock pot before but, I must say it was DELICIOUS!

Mmmmm....looks good. I love Dawson's smile in the photo where she is holding the humongous (Grace's new word!) apple.
