Apple Orchard

Avie had her first field trip and man oh man was it eventful. The apple orchard we went to was an hour away from base and not being off the bus for more than 10 minutes and one of the kids fell and split her head open. It was pretty deep so an ambulance was dispatched from the base to come and get her. We thought they might just put us all back on the bus and head back, but we stayed and went ahead with the apple picking.

The Japanese couple that own the orchard showed us how to pick apples the right way, and then the kids were allowed to pick two to take home.

Yep, it's getting cold enough for gloves!

Oh yeah, and then a boy vomited on the bus ride home...what a day.
