This is What its All About

This is a combo post about two of my favorite things, apple pie and my birthday. We went apple picking a couple of weeks ago and so our apple pie season begins. Chris makes the best apple pie and so that was my birthday dessert request. It was delicious but also look at the detail in the before and after pics below. It was beautiful and tasted even better.


We only took one picture from apple picking. This is our second time going to SkyTop Orchard and it didn't disappoint. The view was beautiful, weather was cool and crisp, the donuts were even better then I remember, and the kids had so much fun running free and picking apples. The first variety of apple we picked had small trees close to the ground. It was perfect for Lila and Calvin. They picked most of the apples and Chris manned the quality control station by the basket. Lila, Calvin, and Emmett also loved the tractor ride. This is one of my favorite family outings and I look forward to continuing the tradition.



My birthday has become one of my favorite things more and more. I know, I know, who doesn't like their birthday anyway? Well, Chris LOVES birthdays, his especially, but he also loves celebrating mine and our kids. He sometimes is even more excited then the birthday person. Anyway, he puts a lot of thought and effort into making the day a great one. I'm so grateful for all he does and how much he cares about me. I felt like my birthday celebration was more like a week than just one day with everything he planned for me. He truly is amazing and I am very lucky to have him as my husband. I got everything I asked for and more. Happy Birthday to me!
