Needing A Little Magic?

After dinner, are your children running around like crazy people, yelling at the top of their lungs? Are you finding that you want to pull your hair out because they need you the exact moment you get into the bathroom? Basically, are you looking for a little magic? Then may I suggest you hit an apple orchard...I'm convinced they hold magical qualities! There is one particular orchard, I think, that holds just a little extra magic. It would be the Flynn's orchard.


Tonight we were able to head over to pick some apples at the Flynn's and it was just what we needed! The children, previously screaming banshees, morphed into the sweethearts of every parents' dreams! Emily loved "wandering off" down the orchard lane and Christian insisted upon taking off every apple's stem before putting it in his bucket. It was chillier this year than previous years, but, we still brought home plenty of delicious apples. I can't wait to bake! We feel so fortunate to be able to experience just a little magic each fall.

Looks like so much fun! We still haven't done that. Maybe this year we will make the time.
