For years now we have been hearing about Apple Hill in California and how fun it is. This year we decided to try it out. We woke up really early and drove the three hours to our destination. It was a beautiful drive but for most of the time we were winding all around the mountains. Makayla got car sick (this has only happened once before!!!) but afterward she felt a lot better. Next time we make this trip we will be sure to bring plastic bags! When we got there this was one of the first farms we went too. It was full of flowers and so beautiful. Even the kids were amazed by all the flowers. The weather was perfect! Luckily we wore shorts because it even got a little hot!
At this farm Ben and I shared an awesome piece of pumpkin cheesecake pie. It was so good! The best part was that the kids didn't like it so we got it all to ourselves.
Next it was off to feed some farm animals. There were sheep, goats, cows, and chickens.
Makayla loves to get her face painted. She was so excited that she got to wear her beautiful unicorn the whole day and was very careful not to mess it up.
While Makayla got her face painted Kyle patiently waited and let me take some cute pictures of him. It was nice that he didn't care that she got something that he didn't! I wonder how long that will last???
At practically every farm there was a pumpkin patch. They were all so beautiful. The kids each got to pick their own pumpkin.
It is called Apple Hill Farms because every farm has apple orchards. The apples were so good and the kids loved roaming in the orchards. We had the most wonderful day. We will for sure be making this trip again. It was a long day but it was really nice to be able to sleep in our own beds that night! We love those day trips!
