Some of these apples were REALLY big!
Pretty berry bushes, too.
Crab apple trees.
Queen Anne's Lace and apples.
Greg climbing for the best ones!
You could pick your own pumpkins, too!

are we going to do,
with 17 pounds of apples??! We've got 38, oh wait, we already ate one, so 37 apples to use up. Here are some ideas I'm thinking of right now.
Anyone else have any great apple recipes? Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!

- Apple pie! I've been wanting to make one forever so this is a must.
- Apple cake. I saw a yummy one here via here.
- Apple butter. Just seems like a fun thing to try.
- And of course, the honeycrisps are so good we will probably eat them on their own - my mouth is watering just thinking of them!
