Apple Fest

We decided to take one more trip to Linvilla for the Apple Festival. This is their biggest festival of the year. There were more vendors and activities going on.
 
There was no hayride this time (which Abby was pretty upset about). We just walked out into the orchard.
 
The girls were great helpers. We picked several different kinds of apples and they have all been delicious!
 



Showing off our haul. Abby couldn't wait to start eating. She ate two before we even got home.


They had a big set up of pumpkins too. I can't believe it's already that time of year!


This is called a long-neck pumpkin. You could do some serious cooking with these bad boys.


Sam tried on the Turk's Turban pumpkin.


 They had a cute area set up for a photo-op. As you can see, the girls were very cooperative. The third one is my favorite.




When it came to sampling goodies, they were much more cooperative. We got apple fritters (which I'm sad to say were kind of a flop), rainbow kettle corn (which also wasn't that good but Abby liked it) and cold apple cider (which was delicious).

 
We left the festival and went straight to the dental school picnic. It was a fun day--the perfect way to kick off the fall.
