A thousand apples a day will keep the doctor away...

A friend posted on facebook about a farm in Bosque Farms that was in need of getting their apples picked before the first big frost of the year. So we went first thing Saturday morning and picked until our buckets were full! We were the first people there and I guess a lot of people got the same message because by the afternoon instead of giving the apples away they were charging them... So we spent all day Saturday drying, caning, baking everything apples! Apple pie, applesauce, apple butter, dried apples... And we all ate about 4 apples a piece too!

The boys heading off!

All of us loved it! We had an apple throwing contest and laughed about all the things you could do with apples. We loved it and made a great memory for our family! Plus we will have homemade apple pie for thanksgiving... In fact I have 5 pies in my new freezer right now! Oh did you know I got a freezer for Christmas? Like a nice stand up one?! LOVE IT! Hello freezer meals!
