Apple Hillin'

There is nothing more than I love than Apple Hill in the Fall. I can't begin to tell you how much I love this time of year. I'm a firm believer that everything good happens during the Fall. Also, how could you not love all the pumpkins? We headed to Apple Hill for our dating anniversary . Yes, we still celebrate our dating anniversary and it's every bit just as sweet as when we were dating. I've been with my guy fourteen years. He jokes that we've been together for 100 years. Thanks to him Haidyn tells everyone that her parents have been together for 100 years.

This trip to Apple Hill we took Tina with us just so she can experience us go pumpkin and apple crazy. We took the day all together to roam around and sample all the apple things. I am bias but I do love Apple Hill than I love pumpkin patches because there is much more than just pumpkins. Anything you want made out of apples is being made in Apple Hill. We've been to Apple Hill so many times that we know the orchards we love and we're more than loyal to them.

 

 

Haidyn's one objective was to ride the horses since we told her we were heading to Apple Hill. She wanted nothing other than to ride those ponies. The ponies always make her smile. She did mention that she is getting too big for the ponies but she will continue to ride them until they give up. ( Not a chance girl.) 

After our apple extravaganza we headed to Ikea and Seafood city. We couldn't find a better way to kick off our Fall! Can it be Fall 365  please? 

Apple Hill Craze

Fall is officially here and our first order of business was to head to Apple Hill. Of course, we picked the busiest weekend to head to the most popular apple spot .  Last year we went to Apple Hill too late in the year and it just wasn't the same. This year was a lot different and a lot more fun than any previous year. As many of you know this is Haidyn's favorite time of year so the fact that her Papa and Uncle Josh came along this year just sent her through the roof.

She's at the age where she understands that the weekend is coming so for weeks prior to this trip she knew we were going to Apple Hill. I'm sure she had no freaking clue what the hell Apple Hill was, but when we got there she was beside herself. It was heaven for her. The day that we picked to go seemed like the busiest day of the year. We got to Apple Hill at 11:00 am and didn't get to park and into a farm until 12:00 noon. Josh waited for us because the traffic was that awful! (Thank you again for waiting for us). We ate lunch at High Hill Ranch. This was our first time as a family visiting this ranch. Our lunch was amazing and we got to spend some time by the pond watching the geese. Haidyn's favorite part of this farm had to be the ponies. She got to ride the ponies along side her Hootsee and you can tell by the look on her face that she was having the time of her life.

 

Our second and final stop was of course my favorite Boa Vista Orchards. I don't know what it is about this farm that brings me to life. I absolutely love this farm. The apples, the goodies and the pumpkins are just so amazing. The boys went off to enjoy their apple beers and my mom and I went to buy the goodies. Haidyn went off with the boys to enjoy all of the gypsies. We didn't stay here long but we did let Haidyn run around the pumpkin field.

 

After Apple Hill we said our goodbyes with Josh and headed to Roseville. No trip to California is ever complete without stopping into Lush. ( All of us Wells' girls I already can't wait to go back next year! Hopefully we choose a day that isn't the busiest damn day of the year again, but nonetheless I would go even if it was the busiest day.
