We had a fabulous Sunday. It started with going to a worship service outdoors at Mt. Hood Villages. It was the end to the Christian music festival. After an hour of music the kids were to antsy to stay for the speaker but we had a fun day planned. We went over the mountain to the orchards again, this time for apples and pears. Mikell(bailey and Caleb) drove all of us in her truck. We were set free to pick fruit and were completely clueless as to which types were ripe or not. We tasted several with mounting confusion as to what a ripe apple/pear is even suppose to taste like. But then the women who ran the place came out and told us what to look for and how to pick them. Very fun. The kids could reach the lower fruit but they had more fun pulling and riding in the wagon we had. Then we got to visit the animals they had. They even had a little play area of swings and bikes amongst the trees that the kids played while we choose and paid for our produce. A beautiful place and REALLY nice people. They even gave as a hay ride before we left. Then a stop for some ice cream before we headed back over the mountain. Of course I had to get a pic of Billi eating ice cream with her usual zeal. Scan down to see all the pics. I think the # of Pics can attest to how much fun we had. Thanks again Mikell., its great to have a fellow goof ball to hang out with!
