Yes! Greenbluff!



Every fall our family loves to visit Greenbluff. In fact we even made a visit late summer to pick strawberries.

But this visit being our first for fall is always special. Joey and I joined Grandma at the Harvest House. First item...fresh pumpkin donuts. Then a little listen time to the band and off to the pumpkin area. Today our visit focused around picking apples which was a little hard on Joe, he couldn't figure out why we weren't getting pumpkins today too!

After picking up a few boxes we ventured out into the orchard. Our target-the honeycrisp apple. Much to our dismay they were very picked over and due to an unfortunate hail storm the remaining apples seemed weirdly bruised. Joey loved doing a little climbing to get a few good ones. Then we head to the Fuji isle which was much more successful. I think Joey has already had 3 apples!

We ended the visit with a ride on the ponies. There were also wagon rides pulled by Belgium horses but sadly momma chose for us to save that for next time. We love Greenbluff! Thanks for inviting us Grammie!

How fun! I love Greenbluff too! It's the best way to welcome fall, even though we're supposed to have summer weather all week! :)
