4th annual Klackyloo

The gorgeous fall weather of this past weekend was positively perfect for our annual trek to Klackles Orchard.....and clearly the rest of the state had the same idea as us. LOL

Once again good times were had by all. Our "all" seems to grow every year :) Unfortunately when we left, the van did not stear us into the Ponderosa parking lot, as it usually does.  Elle needed a snooze badly, and was asleep before we got out of the parking lot. So, we let her sleep for a bit and stopped when we got closer to home.  A small town restaurant with good, cheap food, crayons on the table, and "regulars" lurking everywhere.  It always amuses me to watch peoples eyes when we walk in places as a family.  You can see the mental counting...and then the familiar smile and nod.   It may be our "new" tradition!

The apple pickin' was slim this year...and that's being very generous! We've never worked so hard to fill up 6 bags of apples! If you look closely in the picture above, an apple was spotted at the very top of the tree. The highest we could get was Austin standing on Tims shoulders...so Tim got creative with my water bottle.

Looks like lots of fun! I like seeing the pictures of you and Tim together- you actually are a 2 parent family;) My pictures always seems to only show one of us :) I guess their are advantages to letting the kids get older! Glad to see you had some good family time on a beautiful Saturday!
