Holy crap! I blogged! That’s right ya’ll – I’m back on
the train after falling off for most of this month. I promise, it’s for good reasons! Stay tuned J
Back in October, we took the girls apple picking. We started the “tradition” last year by going
to Graves Mountain. We really enjoyed
it, so we wanted to make sure we went again this year. In Virginia, you either go to Graves Mountain
or Carter Mountain to do your apple picking.
Since we experienced Graves last year, and Carter Mountain is a bit
closer, we decided on Carter Mountain. My
friend Jen and her family joined us, as well as my parents. Our day was great – the kids had fun picking
apples and afterwards, we went into downtown Charlottesville to have some lunch.
In comparison, I
liked Carter Mountain because there was a ton of apple picking options and the
views were a lot prettier than Graves.
BUT, I think I’ll want to head back to Graves next year. Their festival has a lot more action and fun
activities for the kids to enjoy other than just apple picking. Either way, we had a great day spending time
with family and some friends!
Looks like SO much fun! I'm glad your back friend ;)
