Nana Haertel brought us several boxes full of apples, pumpkins, and melons. The kids have especially enjoyed the apple harvest. They love being able to pick out their own apple from the box, bring it inside to wash it and have a whole apple all to themselves. Luke was very proud to sit and eat a big apple all by himself.
The bounty of fruit has stocked our freezer -- with 6 quart jars of homemade applesauce, three bags of sliced apples ready to be made into pies, several bags of cooked pumpkin to make into pumpkin bars, cookies, pies, soup and bread! Yum! I love fall foods and have a lot of fun stocking up our freezer for the months ahead. Thank you Nana for sharing with us!
Piles of leaves bring so much joy to our kids! We have several large trees in our courtyard. We've done a lot of raking and playing in the leaves the past few weeks. It's great exercise for me and hours of entertainment for the kids.
