Fall Harvest and Apple Picking

One of my favorite things to plant in our garden each summer is squash and pumpkins. I think it's because we have to wait the longest for them to be ready and it's so fun to be harvesting fresh produce in October. This year we harvested a record number of squash in our garden with a total of 15! We also have 2 large pumpkins that will be perfect in time for Halloween!








We spent some time today picking apples at one of Brian's coworker's house. They have been planting apple trees gradually over the past 20 years and now have an orchard of about 100 trees in their backyard! It was such a beautiful and charming afternoon. We picked Honeycrisp, Jonathan, Red Delicious, and one other I can't remember the name of. We also picked out a pumpkin and a bunch of gourds.
