Apple Orchard

Grandma Deb and Grandpa Ken came to visit us over the weekend. We were happy the weather turned out as nice as it was. The forecast had rain showers for Lake Geneva, but we lucked out. Grandma Deb & Grandpa Ken showed up Friday afternoon and we took them for a drive around town and gave them a little tour. We were admiring the lake front properties.

Saturday turned out to be a nice day. We went on the bike trail that morning. Mom brought her handy-dandy little scooter with so that she was able to join us for the bike ride. Bradley had fun riding with her.
We then went to the Apple Orchard to spend the afternoon. The boys really enjoyed this!
We went for a wagon ride around the apple orchard and pumpkin patch. Here is Carter peeking at me just before the wagon took off.
The wagon stopped in the apple orchard and we were able to eat and pick as many apples as we wanted.



Bradley had fun running through the trees and Carter had fun climbing the trees.



Grandpa lifts the boys up to pick an apple.

The next stop was the pumpkin patch. The boys could only pick one pumpkin since we will soon be going on our traditional pumpkin patch visit in Rice Lake with the Klimie cousins. They can't wait to go!!

The wagon ride back down. Chad is talking to Aunt Lou on the phone. They had invited us to church, food and activities on Sunday.

Grandpa and Grandma treated the boys to a pony ride afterwards. Carter wanted to go again....and again.....and again....





We went out to eat on the way home. Sunday morning, we met Mom and Dad's good friend that lives in Lake Geneva for breakfast. It was great to see Beaa! We did a little window shopping down town and then out to see Beaa's house. It was a beautiful home. Mom and Dad had a safe trip home and made good time.
Thanks for visiting Grandpa Ken and Grandma Deb. We had lots of fun!! Come again...

So glad to have the pictures and captions to view. We still expect Chad coming with the garbage and Bradley with him; seeing Carter on his bike. I baked bread (frozen) and made some "little" loaves for the grandkids around here, miss not baking for Carter and Bradley. Chad, your hair is shorter, looks good.

Looks like you are having lots of fun down in the southern part of the state. We are glad that grandma and grandpa were able to make the trip down to see you. The apples look yummy! Makes me hungry for the CARAMEL APPLES at the pumpkin patch here in Rice Lake! Can't wait until you come for our trip!

The Klimie grandparents told me that they had a great time seeing your place and visiting with the family. I'm sure that other relatives will be making the trip sometime in the future. Won't be us though as we plan on leaving on the 28th of Oct. for Florida! Looks like you find lots of things to do for enjoyment.
