Apples, and Pumpkins, and Donuts, OH MY!!


Last week Kyla and I took the kids to the San Bernardino mountains
 for a little apple picking, donut eating fun!
We ended up at Snow-Line Orchards, where the apple picking was done, but there was still plenty of fun!


The trees were beautiful, all decked out in their fall colors.
 The kids loved the red leaves!


I decided it was going to be such a magical day that the girls needed appropriately applicious matching outfits!
(Read more about that here.)


The apple press has been in operation for over 100 years!
It was amazing to watch the apple juice just flow out of all those apples!


Jeremy thought it was very interesting that he was taller than the roof of this building which was built into the side of the hill.


The kids loved watching the apple cider donuts being made!


I couldn't wait to taste them!


Sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar, they were irresistible!


Mmmmm....
We also loved tasting the different varieties of apples they sold there and the apple cider too!


On our way up the mountain we saw this sign and screamed a little!!


At the base of the mountain, we stopped at Live Oak Canyon Pumpkin Patch. It was closed for the season, but we got to pick a couple of pumpkins. Jeremy was in love with the corn maze, and disappointed that it was closed. We will have to go back next year and see everything!


They had pumpkins and pumpkins and more pumpkins!!
So many varieties!!


A little twirl with her pumpkin!


You would think it weighed as much as she did by the way she carried it!


It was a super fun, magical day!
We can't wait to do it again next year!!
