Annies Apples!

We went yesterday to Apple Annie's Farm in Willcox, Arizona to pick apples and see what a farm was all about! Michael was so excited, and we had a ball. They were still serving pancake breakfast with apple syrup and sausage when we got there, so we started with that (yum!). We walked all through the orchard, with the smell of rotten apples and cider all around, and tried to figure out what kind of apples we were looking at - Red Delicious, Golden Delicious, Fuji, Rome, Granny Smith all together in the part we were walking though. We picked about 7 pounds of apples, trying to figure out which trees looked best and what kind we wanted. We ended up with Granny Smith and Rome apples. We paid for our produce, put the stroller in the car and went back to ride the tractor-pulled wagon around the farm. It was a bunch of fun, and Michael and Miranda really enjoyed themselves!
