National Day of Play

It is National Day of Play and 85 degrees outside. So, what are my kids doing? I guess they didn't get the memo.

Hey, at least the boy is reading outside.

Apple Picking

We took the kids apple picking at an orchard about 45 minutes away. We had a great time! We picked a bunch of organic fuji and gala apples. They were delicious. The boy ate three before we left the field.

Once the apples were picked, we sat down at a table in the orchard that had a cute checkers board. The girl and her Dad played a game of checkers while the boy at apples.

After apple picking we decided to head to the wharf (which was a few minutes away) to see the seals and eat lunch. We all had a good time watching the seals and the fishermen fishing. One of the fishermen was saying the challenge was getting the fish out of the water before a seal came and ate it off. Grandfather, you should recognize this place. It is where the girl jumped into your arms after hearing the "barking seals" when she was a toddler.
