Apples!

An Engelhardt family tradition is to make a fall trip to Gay's Mills, WI for apples. We did this with Abby for the first time when she was two and went again this year on October 12, 2008.

Grandpa and Grandma drove their mini-van...
...and a rough looking Tonto came along. (Lisa fell while on vacation in TX and broke her arm and got this nasty gash on her head.)


Grandma packed a wonderful picnic, including Spring Grove pop -- an all-time special treat. This was Abby's first taste of soda (that I know of)!


We had our picnic by the beautiful Kickapoo River and Abby found a giant leaf! If anyone can identify it, please let us know!
Abby allowed me to get a few photos with smiles, but quickly tired of her mother's demands!



She finally agreed to a final smile!



The fall colors were beautiful and the apples were tasty -- especially with caramel!
