study break at the Apple Barn

Yesterday we took a break from school (and work!) to take an impromptu trip to Oregon Heritage Farms!

This is a wonderful family farm operated by my Book Club friend Kim.  It is known county-wide as THE place to go for apples and harvest fun.  :o)  Each year Kim adds something new: this year there is a covered picnic area and an apple-hole game, and our NEW FAVORITE: cider slushies!!  Along with the slushies and some donuts as a treat, we bought a gallon of cider, a frozen pie, and some Jupiter grapes to take home.  Oh, and each kid got to choose a honey stick, too.  ;o)

Goats are always a hit.
huge apples

The littles went straight to the bounce house;
the bigs, to the shop.
Our new obsession: cider slushies





This was such a fun way to celebrate the last day of summer. :o)  And what a great summer it was!!  We are looking forward to fall and all our traditional autumn activities in the coming months.....
