there's this wonderful place here

called apple hill.

i haven't been in years and really wanted to go

since we are back in california.

so T took the day off today

[yay!]

and our little family

+ my mom

took a little trip up to apple hill.

first we went to the wrong part of apple hill

[oops]

and looked around in some museum for a few minutes.

then we called T's sister to ask what part of apple hill was the good part.

we got back in the car and headed to the good part.

we looked at the crafts people sell

then enjoyed an apple fritter

and divine hot apple cider.

then we bought 3 small pieces of fudge to share.

chocolate raspberry.

dark chocolate nut.

toffee.

so delicious.

we then took pictures at the miniature pumpkin patch.

Jack discovered he has a hand this week and has been loving sucking on it,

Jack & Grandma

 by then we were just about ready to go.

so we bought apples to make two apple pies

and of course a few apples to eat!

I really wanted a caramel apple

but was so stuffed from the apple fritter, apple cider and fudge

plus there was a line

plus they cost like $5-$7.

plus we had homemade caramel apples on monday.

[thanks mom!]

so we decided to pass today.

maybe next year.

to be honest, there really isn't that much to do at apple hill.

but, to me, it's totally worth the hour long drive

for fresh apples

the best hot apple cider you've ever had

cute pictures of Jack

a yummy apple fritter

and the feeling of autumn time.

if you're ever down this way,

i recommend it.

Look at the HUGE and totally crazy shaped pumpkin!
