She's a doll isn't she?
Matt and sam and I took Alena down to his grandparents for the annual apple harvest. They pick all of the apples at the end of the season just shake them out of the trees,
pick them up from the ground and box them up. Then they took them around to the front where the cider press is located.
Grandpa seemed to be having a great time :) He was probably just happy to get the apples picked so the bear quits coming around at night! Yes they have had a bear prowling for apples in the last few weeks so it's a good thing they made them into cider.
Matt and Dave are getting the cider press ready to rock and roll~
Miss Alena having a bit of quality time with her great grandma.
Does making cider and spending the day with beloved family members count as a day off? Well for me it does all I really did was wander around with a baby on my hip and a camera in my free hand. I don't know how I ever got anything done while my babies were little!!! I stand amazed that some of the people I know can accomplish so much with children underfoot :) I know I got things done when the kids were little. I guess I have forgotten how lol...

Well I turned 41 last weekend and I am still alive and kickin'~ TJ and Kendra brought Aleena for a dip in the pool. Is she just the cutest in her hat and bikini or what? We had a wonderful day, Matts' Grandma and Uncle Dave came up from Little Rock (Wa) Mom and Milo came out and Chelsea brought Jaxson over to play with Sammy. Matts' sister Jill even made a surprise appearance. It was great to see everyone. The weather was fabulous, we are back to grey and rainy now though with a thunderstorm here and there just to keep you on your toes :)
My dad sent me a gift certificate for Frantz Art Glass and I can't wait to go and use it!! Boy talk about the "Perfect" gift hehehe... Now I just need to take some time for myself from my crazy schedule so I can use it.
Maybe next week...
